Qt Quick Ultralite is designed with performance and code size in mind. Therefore the QML layer is intended only for visual presentation of an application and business logic of an application should be done in C++. Qt Quick Ultralite provides C++ API which make the inter-operation between QML and C++ a straightforward and boilerplate code free process. For more information, see Integrating C++ code with QML.

Qt Quick Ultralite does not provide full JavaScript runtime but it provides most commonly used APIs that allow you to write script expressions. If you believe that some important API is missing, contact Qt Professional Services.
