Qt is a C++ toolkit for multiplatform development of 2D user interfaces, and also includes other functionality to help programmers write multiplatform applications. Qt is currently available on X11-based systems (UNIX, Linux and BSDs), MSWindows, Mac OS X and embedded systems. SoQt is compatible with Qt 3 and 4.

By using the combination of Coin, Qt and SoQt for your 3D applications, you have a framework for writing completely portable software across the whole range of UNIX, Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X operating systems. Coin, Qt and SoQt makes this possible from a 100% common codebase, which means there is a minimum of hassle for developers when working on multiplatform software, with the resulting large gains in productivity.

SoQt, like Coin and Qt, provides the programmer with a high-level application programmer's interface (API) in C++. The library primarily includes a class-hierarchy of viewer components of varying functionality and complexity, with various modes for the end-user to control the 3D-scene camera interaction.
