.. ifconfig:: output_format == 'html'

    **Qt for Python** offers the official Python bindings for `Qt`_,
    which enables you to use Python to write your Qt applications.
    The project has two main components:

    * `PySide6`_, so that you can use Qt6 APIs in your Python applications, and
    * `Shiboken6 <shiboken6/index.html>`__, a binding generator tool, which can
      be used to expose C++ projects to Python, and a Python module with
      some utility functions.
