+Qt Widgets template project with Rust bindings
+
+This is a template project for writing a Qt Widgets GUI on top of Rust code.
+
+`bindings.json` defines the interface between the Qt and Rust code.
+
+`main.ui` is a Qt Designer interface specification that is used to generates UI code.
+
+Build instructions are written in `build.rs`.
+
+Build this code with
+
+```bash
+cargo build
+```
