### Debian Qt Creator and Plugin Installation

Qt Creator can be installed via debian officially from [Qt](https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator). The debian is located in the `cpack_experimental` folder found under each version. Below is an example showing the steps to install both Qt Creator and Plugin. After going through the steps below you must log out and back in so the profile changes are active. Afterwards your system should be able to locate Qt Creator and allow you to add it to your favorits.

I also found Debian packages in the release assets of the GitHub project: https://github.com/qt-creator/qt-creator/releases. However, there is no distinction between the "official" releases and the "development" releases for "beta" and "rc" releases. So it is more difficult to automatically download from it.


```bash
wget https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qtcreator/14.0/14.0.2/cpack_experimental/qtcreator-opensource-linux-x86_64-14.0.2.deb
sudo dpkg -i qtcreator-opensource-linux-x86_64-14.0.2.deb
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/opt/qt-creator/bin' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/opt/qt-creator/bin' >> ~/.profile
echo 'export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:/opt/qt-creator/share/' >> ~/.profile
wget https://github.com/ros-industrial/ros_qtc_plugin/releases/download/14.2/ROSProjectManager-14.2-Linux-x86_64.deb
