 Due to the complexity involved in compiling Qt, it is suggested to download precompiled binaries. To do so, 
 get Qt Online installer at https://www.qt.io/download-qt-installer, execute installer and follow instructions.
 
-If you want to compile Qt yourself, you will find some basic instructions below.  
-
-Download the latest Qt 5 release from https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/ and unpack it to C:\Developer.
-
-Follow instructions in following pages to get Qt build dependencies, noticeably perl, python and ruby:
-https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/windows-requirements.html
-https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/windows-building.html
-
-Start a command line and import your Visual Studio environment:
-- for building 32bit on Visual Studio 2015: \path\to\visual\studio\VC\vcvarsall.bat x86
-- for building 64bit on Visual Studio 2015: \path\to\visual\studio\VC\vcvarsall.bat x86_amd64
-- for building 32bit on Visual Studio 2017 or 2019: \path\to\visual\studio\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat x86

-Now cd to C:\Developer\qt-everywhere-whatever and run configure:
-configure -platform win32-msvc -prefix /path/where/you/want/qt5/to/be/installed -nomake examples -nomake tests -opengl dynamic -opensource -mp

-After configure has finished its work, run nmake. Depending on the number of processors available on your machine, a complete Qt build may 
-take from a few hours to several days. Once Qt has finished building, run following command to install Qt to its install directory:
-nmake install
-
-If you want to build Qt docs, you might want to run following command afterwards:
-nmake docs
-nmake install_docs
-
-Once you finished building and installing Qt, you can run following command to clean Qt source directory:
-nmake distclean
