Add the “C:\Panda3D-1.10.7\bin” path to the Path variable. Create an empty project in Qt Creator IDE:

Select “Desktop Qt 5.15.1 MSVC2019 32 bit”:

Add these settings to the “.pro” file:

INCLUDEPATH += "C:\Panda3D-1.10.7\include"
LIBS += -L"C:\Panda3D-1.10.7\lib"
LIBS += -llibp3framework -llibpanda -llibpandaexpress -llibp3dtool -llibp3dtoolconfig -llibp3direct

Create the "main.cpp" file. Copy the first example from the manual: Creating a New Panda3D Application

main.cpp

#include "pandaFramework.h"
#include "pandaSystem.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  // Open a new window framework
  PandaFramework framework;
  framework.open_framework(argc, argv);

  // Set the window title and open the window
  framework.set_window_title("My Panda3D Window");
  WindowFramework *window = framework.open_window();

  // Here is room for your own code

  // Do the main loop, equal to run() in python
  framework.main_loop();
  framework.close_framework();
  return (0);
}

Switch Qt Creator to “Release”:

Run the project.
