## What problem does it solve?
Qt export macros and QML registration macros govern symbol visibility and how documentation should distinguish public API from internal usage. This Skill provides a reference to interpret these macros and the implications for documentation and API surface.
## Core Features & Use Cases
### Quick Start
Consult this guide to classify Qt API surfaces by header type, export macro usage, and QML registration macros.

Qt export macros like Q_CORE_EXPORT and Q_GUI_EXPORT govern symbol visibility and classify API surfaces. They indicate whether C++ headers require full public documentation or internal notes based on their export patterns.
Qt private headers use the _p.h suffix, and classes with a Private suffix indicate internal API visibility. They require internal documentation notes rather than full public API reference materials.
QML registration macros expose C++ types to QML and require cross-cutting documentation combining C++ export rules with QML exposure. This ensures consistent user-facing docs across integration scenarios.
An export-with-internal pattern is valid when a Qt module needs to share symbols internally across modules while restricting public API visibility. This specific pattern requires careful documentation to distinguish internal sharing from public exposure.
Classify Qt API surfaces by examining header location rules, export macro usage, and QML registration macros. Apply decision trees to C++ headers across Qt modules to determine documentation requirements.
