Qt is a commercial and open source licensed cross-platform application and UI framework. It is developed by The Qt Company, a solely owned entity of Digia Plc, together with the Qt Project Community under an open source governance model. Using Qt, you can write GUI applications once and deploy them across desktop, mobile and embedded operating systems without rewriting the source code. Qt is supported on a variety of 32-bit and 64-bit platforms, and can usually be built on each platform with GCC, a vendor-supplied compiler, or a third party compiler. Open GL (ES) 2.0, DirectX 9 (with ANGLE), or an \l {Qt Quick 2D Renderer} {alternative renderer} is required for \l [QtQuick] {Qt Quick} 2. \l [QtWidgets] {Qt Widgets}{Widgets} can be used without hardware acceleration. In Qt 5 all platforms are created using the \l{Qt Platform Abstraction} (QPA), which makes it easier than before to port Qt into a new operating system. \section1 Supported Configurations The following table lists configurations supported by The Qt Company. A \e {configuration} is a combination of an operating system version, a compiler version, and a graphics system. \include supported-platforms.qdocinc latest In the above table, the configurations in \b bold are \e {reference configurations}. \section2 Reference Configurations The reference configurations are run on the continuous integration (CI) system within Qt Project. In addition, they are subjected to unit test suite and other internal testing tools on a frequent basis (prior to new version releases, source tree branching, and at other significant period points in the development process). Errors or bugs discovered in these platforms are prioritized for correction. Significant errors discovered in tested configurations can impact release dates. Any configurations not listed above are not actively tested by the Qt Project. However, Qt may run on configurations other than those actively tested on, and additional configurations may be raised to tested state, if sufficient effort is made to bring continuous integration to an acceptable state for that particular configuration. The following page lists the configurations supported by The Qt Company for each released Qt version: \list \li \l {Supported Platforms and Configurations} \endlist The Qt Company, Qt partners, open source projects and community users are able to provide assistance with various different supported platforms and configurations. \section1 Availability of Packages You can download the Qt 5 installers and source packages from the \l Downloads page. For more information, visit the \l{Getting Started with Qt} page. \section1 Deployment of Qt Applications The deployment procedure for each platform is different and they are covered in greater detail in their platform pages. Meanwhile, there is a deployment article for summarizing the deployment procedure in general. \list \li \l{Deploying Qt Applications} \list \li \l{Platform and Compiler Notes - Android#Deployment}{Android} \li \l{Qt for iOS}{iOS} \li \l{Qt for Linux/X11 - Deployment}{Linux/X11} \li \l{Qt for OS X - Deployment}{OS X} \li \l{Qt for Windows - Deployment}{Windows} \endlist \endlist \section1 General Legal Disclaimer Please note that Qt is offered on an "as is" basis without warranty of any kind and that our products are not error or bug free.
