In this video, we'll show the basics of how to export instances of QObject subclasses to QML. Yes, this sounds like what we saw in the last video; and yes, it will be very very similar. But remember, QObjects are not value classes, and they add a huge number of features on top of standard C++ (properties, signals, slots, etc.) via the meta-object system. Guess what, we get all those goodies when we export a QObject to QML!
