\title Supported Platforms
\brief The platforms supported by Qt.
Qt is a commercial and open source licensed cross-platform application
and UI framework. It is developed by The Qt Company, together with the
Qt Project Community under an open source governance model.
Using Qt, you can write GUI applications once and deploy them
across desktop, mobile and embedded operating systems without
rewriting the source code.
Qt is supported on a variety of 32-bit and 64-bit platforms, and can usually
be built on each platform with GCC, a vendor-supplied compiler, or a third
party compiler as indicated in the overview below.
Open GL (ES) 2.0, DirectX 9 or 11 (with ANGLE), or an \l {Qt Quick 2D Renderer} {alternative
renderer} is required for \l [QtQuick] {Qt Quick} 2.
\l [QtWidgets] {Qt Widgets}{Widgets} can be used without
hardware acceleration.
In Qt 5 all platforms are created using the \l{Qt Platform Abstraction}
(QPA), which makes it easy to port Qt into a new operating system.
The following platforms are supported in Qt \qtver. For support information
for prior Qt releases, please consult the relevant version in the
\l {http://doc.qt.io/archives/}{Qt Documentation Archives}.
Configurations in \b bold are \l {Reference Configurations}.
\note Support for specific configurations or operating system versions may
end before the support for Qt \qtver does. A subsequent patch release
of Qt \qtver may drop support for a configuration as a \e {reference
configuration} or replace it with a currently-supported version.
\include supported-platforms.qdocinc all
\section1 Reference Configurations
The reference configurations are run on the continuous integration (CI)
system within Qt Project. In addition, they are subjected to unit test suite
and other internal testing tools on a frequent basis (prior to new version
releases, source tree branching, and at other significant period points in
the development process). Errors or bugs discovered in these platforms are
prioritized for correction. Significant errors discovered in tested
configurations can impact release dates.
Any configurations not listed above are not actively tested by the Qt
Project. However, Qt may run on configurations other than those actively
tested on, and additional configurations may be raised to tested state, if
sufficient effort is made to bring continuous integration to an acceptable
state for that particular configuration.
The Qt Company, Qt partners, open source projects and community users
are able to provide assistance with various different supported
platforms and configurations.
\section1 Availability of Packages
You can download the Qt 5 installers and source packages from the \l Downloads page.
For more information, visit the \l{Getting Started with Qt} page.
\note All the supported configurations are not provided as binary packages
in the Qt installer. However, the intention is to provide the most widely-used
reference configurations for the developer's convenience.
\section2 Exceptions
Individual modules might be available only on some platforms, or they might
not support all configurations. For example, as Qt \WebEngine has Chromium
as a third-party dependency, platform or configuration limitations upstream
also apply to Qt \WebEngine.
The documentation for each module contains detailed information about any
exceptions the module has from the general platform and configuration
support as described on this page.
\section1 Deployment of Qt Applications
The deployment procedure for each platform is different and they are
covered in greater detail in their platform pages. Meanwhile, there is a
deployment article for summarizing the deployment procedure in general.
