#### Qt 6 support
Serial Studio now compiles with Qt 6.2.0, however, the GitHub actions environment [does not have proper support for Qt 6](https://github.com/jurplel/install-qt-action/issues/95) yet.
To compile with Qt 6, clone the Serial Studio repository and change the branch of the [`qtcsv`](https://github.com/iamantony/qtcsv) library.
```bash
git clone --recursive https://github.com/Serial-Studio/Serial-Studio
cd libs/qtcsv
git checkout master
```
Now, modify [`Shadows.qml`](assets/qml/Widgets/Shadow.qml) and proceed to compiling the application.
Also, be sure to select the `qtserialport` module while installing Qt6 on your machine.
