Hi,

Nothing prevents you from using C++ only, but having said that its 
usually only fullscreen opengles2 games that goes with that approach.

Usually you just make QtQuick application, where you do UI part with QML 
and backend part in C++ aka. hybrid app. I would encourage to go this 
way, of course depending what kind of application you are doing (you 
didn't mention if you application if fullscreen opengles2 game).

If you have existing C++ project, then its just enough for you to open 
the existing .pro file with creator, you don't have to use the wizard to 
make a new project. Drawback is that look and feel wont be consistent 
with other applications if you don't use the QML Sailfish components for 
the UI.
