SFOS Toolkit

Build, deploy, and run Sailfish OS apps from VS Code using the Sailfish SDK CLI (sfdk).

Community project, not affiliated with Jolla. You still need the Sailfish SDK installed.

What it is

A sidebar over sfdk: choose a build target and device, then build, deploy, run, and live-reload QML on the emulator—without leaving the editor.

It is not Sailfish IDE. It does not replace Qt Creator, install the SDK, or register hardware phones.

Features

  • Workflow — Build (engine, build, clean build, compile_commands.json, check, init), Run (deploy, undeploy, run, QmlLive), and Debug (GDB in a terminal: start / attach / load core)
  • Targets, devices, emulators — list, selected target/device, start/stop emulator, terminals, config

Set sfosToolkit.sfdkPath if sfdk is not on PATH, and sfosToolkit.sfdkCwd to your SDK workspace (absolute path).

Register a hardware phone in Sailfish IDE (Tools → Options → Devices). It then appears here.

Not in scope

  • QML/Silica designer, QML Profiler, Qt Creator kit UI
  • Breakpoints in the VS Code Debug view (Debug is sfdk debug in a terminal)
  • SDK install, kit creation, or packaging/maintenance sfdk commands as UI
