Linux/AM3352: Running Qt 5 on a minimal distro

Part Number: AM3352

Tool/software: Linux

Hi 

I am looking around at options for the UI for the project I am working on; the board itself is closely based on the BeagleBoneBlack.

The UI components added are small LCD screen, a couple of buttons and a jog wheel.

There will probably be about a dozen screens:

  •   most displaying text and numeric values
  •   with a few fancier screens with custom widgets to display sensor readings

All 2D - all very flat.

My main constraint is in code space (presently there is only a 32MB flash ROM available) so thus far my rootfs has been stripped of almost everything 

Most of the UI demos I have seen for the Sitara family have been Qt based and pretty snazzy!

  •  I suspect that this might be overkill for what I am considering but I should dig a bit deeper before I write it off

Can anyone explain the minimum resources I need to set up for Qt5 to be able to run on an LCD screen attached to an am3352? 
Can it run just on top of linux framebuffers? or does it need X11, Weyland etc

Thanks for any advice

Best regards,

Richard
