That is very clear to me, I am playing with a combination of vi, make and simulator. I want to help the project not be a burden :-)

Anybody knows how to get QtCreator to start the ios simulator ? 

I called subsurface/scripts/build.sh -build-deps -both
then tried to drag subsurface/build-mobile/Subsurface.app into the simulator, but I get a very informative message “cannot be installed right now, try later” any hints ?

Ps. will forget Xcode for now, and see if I can debug effectively with QtCreator (or Xcode without generating a project).
