    \brief Guidelines for navigation controls
 
    Qt Quick Controls offers a selection of navigation models.
 
    \annotatedlist qtquickcontrols-navigation
 
    The following sections offer guidelines for choosing the appropriate type
    of navigation model, depending on the use case.
 
    \section1 StackView Control

    \l StackView provides a stack-based navigation model which can be used
    with a set of interlinked pages. StackView works according to a last-in
    first-out principle: the page pushed last on the stack is the one visible.
    Popping a page removes the last page and makes the previous one visible.
 
    \section1 SwipeView Control

    \l SwipeView provides a navigation model that simplifies horizontal paged
    scrolling. The page indicator on the bottom shows which is the presently
    active page.
 
    \section1 TabBar Control
