    \title Qt Quick Examples - Embedded in Widgets

    \brief Demonstrates embedding a QQuickWindow into a QWidget UI via QWidget::createWindowContainer().
    \ingroup qtquickexamples

    This example demonstrates one of the approaches to adding Qt Quick content
    into a QWidget-based application. QQuickView, and its parent class,
    QQuickWindow derive from QWindow. This means that they can be used with
    QWidget::createWindowContainer(), like any other QWindow.

    \include examples-run.qdocinc

    Embedding the window internally leads to creating a native child widget
    inside the widget hierarchy, and the window (the QQuickView in the example)
    is reparented. The container widget takes care of repositioning the child
    window so that it appears to be part of the user interface, even though in
    reality it is separate native window that paints independently from its
    parent, the QWidget-based top-level window.

    The key step during initialization is the creation of \c container, a
    QWidget that wraps and hosts the QQuickView. This widget can then added to a
    layout like any other QWidget.

    \note Using native window embedding is just one possible approach to
    combining QWidget and Qt Quick user interfaces. The other, more commonly
    used approach for this is QQuickWidget. See the \l{Qt Quick Widgets Example}
    for an example of using QQuickWidget. There are significant differences
    internally when it comes to rendering and event handling. QQuickWidget does
    not use native windows at all and redirects the Qt Quick rendering into a
    texture that is then composited with the rest of the QWidget content via a
    3D graphics API such as OpenGL or Vulkan. This brings more flexibility, at
    the expense of performance. It also works on platforms where there is no
    actual windowing system and no concept of native windows. Whereas the window
    embedding approach demonstrated by this example can be more performant, but
    it is best suited for user interfaces where the Qt Quick content occupies a
    fixed rectangular area and is not resized, stacked, or clipped afterwards.
