Using Qt Creator to cross-compile and debug Raspberry Pi Qt5 apps

Have you ever wonder how to setup Qt Creator in your powerful workstation to develop Qt apps that can be deployed and tested in your Raspberry Pi (reachable from such workstation)?

Don't let Qt Creator foolish you while creating Android projects

If you are using Qt Creator before 2.8.x and you like to create a new project for Android, please take into account that the "Mobile Application" kit is a left-over from older Qt versions, and should not be used anymore. In Qt Creator 2.8.x it has been removed to avoid this confusion. So you just use any of the usual templates such as "Qt GUI Application", "Qt Quick 2 Application" or "Empty Qt Project".
