Did a hackathon on Saturday (2019/10/26) with a local programming group. I set a goal for myself to create a text based map similar to nethack. However, I chose to use QtQuick as my rendering system. I also chose to do render to texture for my tiles rather than just trying to size fonts for my map. I still rendered fonts, but I did so the transparent textures. I only got the basic map working and it only rendered the outside walls. I learned quite a bit about the rendering system of QtQuick though. Now I have a good grounding to do much more complex rendering.
Here is the code I wrote:
