 Qt (pronounced "cute") is a cross platform development framework which allows you to target both mobile devices and desktop platforms.
-App user interfaces for mobile devices are created using [[:Category:Qt Quick|Qt Quick]] and the [[Qt Quick Components]] (an application framework written using Qt Quick). The "programming language" of Qt Quick is called QML, a declarative language which combines a CSS like declaration of how the UI ''looks'' in different states and how it animates between them, along with JavaScript. The language is intuitive and relatively easy to learn - even relative novices can create very fluid interfaces with little effort.

 Application engines can often be written directly in Qt Quick/QML using JavaScript as many useful C++ APIs are exposed or can trivially be imported into QM. Where JavaScript does not provide the needed functionality or is simply not fast enough, you can always write your engine using the full power of Qt C++ and then expose both properties and functions to your QML app (this requires some C++ programming ability, but is well documented).
