Well, it provides a way to place the window somewhere on the screen, resize 
it, etc. If you want to provide that functionality, you will need to study the 
XCB library and the X11 protocol. Qt will not help you.

But that begs the question: why are you using X in the first place? If you have 
a single-process UI, you should be using EGLFS.
