Also, you can use [ApplicationWindow](http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-qtquick-controls-applicationwindow.html) which make it easier to place menubar\toolbar\statusbar. But both of them will require switching to [QQmlApplicationEngine](http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qqmlapplicationengine.html). (It doesn't looks so hard, but I haven't much experience).

Maybe it doesn't some functionallity right now because of switching to QQmlApplicationEngine, I'm not sure.

Forget to mention that my example contains very simple example. I just copy-pasted it from doc.qt.io, so, of course, "File", "Edit" options should be changed to preferable one. Also, clicking on button doesn't do anything, it's just a sample.
Also, there is a [short article](https://blog.qt.io/blog/2014/12/03/native-android-style-in-qt-5-4/) about native android style in Qt and themes support.
