[Development] Request for a new playground project

[Guillaume Charbonnier]

Hi all !

Following my last message regarding Qt new module for "Mobile Backend as a Service », what is the procedure to follow for creating a Qt playground project ?
My project is in a very early phase, it can only support REST api of Firebase for now but I felt it could help to mutualize our effort if we could have a published playground project.

Best regards.
Guillaume
