Since network-adjusted time is now only used for warning/informational purposes, cleaning up the logic (building on @dergoegge's approach in #28956) should be quite straightforward and uncontroversial. The main changes are: - Previously, we would only calculate the time offset from the first 199 outbound peers that we connected to. This limitation is now removed, and we have a proper rolling calculation. I've reduced the set to 50 outbound peers, which seems plenty. - Previously, we would automatically use the network-adjusted time if the difference was < 70 mins, and warn the user if the difference was larger than that. Since there is no longer any automated time adjustment, I've changed the warning threshold to ~~20~~ 10 minutes (which is an arbitrary number). - Previously, a warning would only be raised once, and then never again until node restart. This behaviour is now updated to 1) warn to log for every new outbound peer for as long as we appear out of sync, 2) have the RPC warning toggled on/off whenever we go in/out of sync, and 3) have the GUI warn whenever we are out of sync (again), but limited to 1 messagebox per 60 minutes - no more globals - remove the `-maxtimeadjustment` startup arg Closes #4521 ACKs for top commit: sr-gi: Re-ACK [c6be144](c6be144c4b) achow101: reACKc6be144c4bdergoegge: utACKc6be144c4bTree-SHA512: 1063d639542e882186cdcea67d225ad1f97847f44253621a8c4b36c4d777e8f5cb0efe86bc279f01e819d33056ae4364c3300cc7400c087fb16c3f39b3e16b96
This directory contains the source code for the Bitcoin Core graphical user interface (GUI). It uses the Qt cross-platform framework.
The current precise version for Qt 5 is specified in qt.mk.
Compile and run
See build instructions: Unix, macOS, Windows, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD
When following your systems build instructions, make sure to install the Qt dependencies.
To run:
./src/qt/bitcoin-qt
Files and Directories
forms/
- A directory that contains Designer UI files. These files specify the characteristics of form elements in XML. Qt UI files can be edited with Qt Creator or using any text editor.
locale/
- Contains translations. They are periodically updated and an effort is made to support as many languages as possible. The process of contributing translations is described in doc/translation_process.md.
res/
- Contains graphical resources used to enhance the UI experience.
test/
- Functional tests used to ensure proper functionality of the GUI. Significant changes to the GUI code normally require new or updated tests.
bitcoingui.(h/cpp)
- Represents the main window of the Bitcoin UI.
*model.(h/cpp)
- The model. When it has a corresponding controller, it generally inherits from QAbstractTableModel. Models that are used by controllers as helpers inherit from other Qt classes like QValidator.
- ClientModel is used by the main application
bitcoinguiand several models likepeertablemodel.
*page.(h/cpp)
- A controller.
:NAMEpage.cppgenerally includes:NAMEmodel.handforms/:NAME.page.uiwith a similar:NAME.
*dialog.(h/cpp)
- Various dialogs, e.g. to open a URL. Inherit from QDialog.
paymentserver.(h/cpp)
- (Deprecated) Used to process BIP21 payment URI requests. Also handles URI-based application switching (e.g. when following a bitcoin:... link from a browser).
walletview.(h/cpp)
- Represents the view to a single wallet.
Other .h/cpp files
- UI elements like BitcoinAmountField, which inherit from QWidget.

Using Qt Creator as an IDE
Qt Creator is a powerful tool which packages a UI designer tool (Qt Designer) and a C++ IDE into one application. This is especially useful if you want to change the UI layout.
Download Qt Creator
On Unix and macOS, Qt Creator can be installed through your package manager. Alternatively, you can download a binary from the Qt Website.
Note: If installing from a binary grabbed from the Qt Website: During the installation process, uncheck everything except for Qt Creator.
macOS
brew install qt-creator
Ubuntu & Debian
sudo apt-get install qtcreator
Setup Qt Creator
- Make sure you've installed all dependencies specified in your systems build instructions
- Follow the compile instructions for your system, run
