Hi everyone,  
I’m working on the vcpkg port for VTK 9.6. I have built the library successfully, but I noticed that this new version no longer generates the qml folder.  
After checking the source code, I found that it was removed in VTK 9.5.0. Coming from 9.3, there were quite a few breaking changes, so I’m not sure if this is intentional or something I’m missing in my build configuration.  
Can anyone confirm whether the QML module is no longer needed, or has it been replaced by something else? I have discovered QQuickVtkItem is it enough to build Vtk viewer in qml?  
Thanks
