Introduction to Qt4-Common

Qt is a comprehensive development framework that includes an extensive array of features, capabilities and tools that enable development of high-performance, cross-platform rich-client and server-side applications. Qt is the GUI framework on which KDE is built and Qt4 is the version of Qt that the KDE4 is use. You can of course use Qt for non-KDE applications as well, but if you wish to use KDE or any KDE-based applications, you must have Qt installed on your system.
