+# QML Validator
+
+QML Validator is a small utility which simply loads the input file and show any
+errors that could occur when doing so. It uses QCoreApplication, and as such it
+doesn't require a graphical environment to run, as opposed to qmlscene for
+example, and as such may be used in situation where a graphical environment
+isn't available, such as a continuous integration script.
+
+## Usage
+
+```
+qml-validator <input-file>
+```
