Solutions for Application Development▲
As a developer, you most likely have a favorite operating system, toolchain, and language. At work, the choices might be made for you, but Qt gives you some freedom by enabling you to maintain a single software code base across all operating systems, platforms, and screen types, from desktops and embedded systems to business-critical applications, in-vehicle systems, wearables, and mobile devices connected to the Internet of Things.
The options are endless, but the following table summarizes the solutions available for different types of target platforms or industries with links to more information.
