<application>Qt</application>'s three major components are the Designer, the Linguist and the Application Programming Interface (<acronym>API</acronym>). The <application>Qt</application> toolkit allows you to write source code for advanced applications with graphical user interfaces on either <trademark>Linux</trademark>, <trademark>Windows</trademark>, or <trademark>Mac</trademark>. It compiles them on all three platforms and embedded operating systems with little or no rewriting of the source code, saving time and development costs.

Since the <application>Qt</application> Toolkit is under the <trademark>GPL</trademark>/<trademark>LGPL</trademark>, it is not threatened by this partnership, and <trademark>Canonical</trademark> announced that they are going to use <application>Qt</application> instead of <trademark>GNOME</trademark> to develop their <trademark>Unity</trademark> 2D desktop. So, considering that, and the fact that <application>Qt</application> is under the <trademark>GPL</trademark>/<trademark>LGPL</trademark> license, <application>Qt</application> remains as viable a development tool as it was before the announcement.

<phrase>Kubuntu</phrase> uses the <trademark>KDE</trademark> desktop, and <trademark>KDE</trademark> was built with <application>Qt</application>. Some would say that <application>Qt</application> is the most powerful <acronym>GUI RAD</acronym> tool available on <trademark>Linux</trademark>, and <trademark>Windows</trademark> as well.

Installation of <application>Qt</application>

160.

The entire <application>Qt</application> toolkit is in the repository as qt-sdk or as part of the <application>Qt</application><acronym>SDK</acronym> available from the <ulink url="http://qt.nokia.com/downloads">http://qt.nokia.com/downloads</ulink> website under either the <trademark>LGPL</trademark> or a commercial license. The latest version is 1.2 and is available from <trademark>Nokia</trademark> in either the <ulink url="http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/sdk-linux-x11-32bit-cpp"> 32 bit</ulink> or <ulink url="http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/sdk-linux-x11-64bit-cpp">64 bit</ulink> version. Each includes the <application>QtCreator</application>, the Designer, the Assistant (<acronym>API</acronym>), the Linguist, and all the necessary libraries and utilities. <application>Qt</application><acronym>SDK</acronym> can be installed in the user's home account and used to create applications regardless of which version of <application>Qt</application> libraries the <trademark>KDE</trademark> desktop requires, because the <acronym>SDK</acronym> startup script sets the shell environment to point to the <acronym>SDK</acronym> libraries.
