 The important part for invokables is that they need to be implemented on the `qobject::T`, not `T`.
 Therefore they have access to both C++ and Rust methods. CXX-Qt adds wrapper code around your invokables to automatically convert between the [C++ and Rust types](../concepts/types.md).
 
-To mark a method as invokable, simply add the `#[qinvokable]` attribute to the Rust method. This tells CXX-Qt to expose the method on the generated C++ class.
