How to design an IDE using Qt?

My friends and I are working on a compiler design as a project in my university (Damascus University).

We're using (Flex, C++, Bison, Qt) to do the job.

I was wondering if there is a way to design an IDE to our compiler using Qt. I know how to do the job but I'm asking to find out if there is some resource to start with, or if there is a pre-built design to do that job.

Thanks in advance :)

Perhaps extending KDevelop with a module would be a better idea. Qt creator is awfully focused on Qt. Other interesting starting points would be Edyuk (they've separated out their editor component from the rest of the application) or good old Scintilla (used by PyQt from Riverbank).

In addition to already suggested QtCreator you could check the qt-apps.org development environments website; a lot software there is open source

Start by looking at the source code of QtCreator. It is very clean and easy to read!
