  <h1>PySide {{ version }} Reference</h1>

    <p><a href="http://www.qtsoftware.com/">Qt</a> is a cross-platform application framework from Qt Software (owned by Nokia).
    It features a large number of libraries providing services like network abstraction and XML handling, along with a very rich
    GUI package, allowing C++ developers to write their applications once and run them unmodified in different systems.
    PySide aims to provide Python developers access to the Qt libraries in the most natural way.</p>

    <p>PySide is built using the <a href="http://www.pyside.org/docs/shiboken">Shiboken</a> binding generator.</p>
