Debian

Modules you probably need:

sudo apt-get install qt5-default qml-module-qtquick-controls qml-module-qtquick-controls2

Also recommended:

sudo apt-get install qml-module-qtlocation qml-module-qtpositioning

I think also

sudo apt-get install qml-module-qtquick-templates2

At present, https://packages.debian.org/buster/libs/qml-module-qtcharts indicates we can't easily insdtall qtcharts yet

Raspbian

For pyqt, regular pip install won't do. Use:

sudo apt-get install pyqt5-dev pyqt5-dev-tools python3-pyqt5.qtquick

Also recommended

sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5.qtpositioning

Be sure to use raspi-config and set Advanced Options|GL Driver|G1 GL (Full KMS)

macOS

Do pip3 install pyqt5

Also experimenting with pip3 install PyQtChart
