Qt ROS Examples

Hello,

My doubt is, If I want to write a ros node using qt GUI- Is it necessary to follow rqt plugin cpp tutorial(I mean is it necessary to create a plugin) or is it possible to write a node and add cmakelist.txt as here. A small example to which opens a qt window is very helpful. Many thanks in advance.
