About:
Qt Tools is a collection of command-line utilities and GUI applications that assist in the development and deployment of Qt applications. It includes tools like Qt Designer for UI creation, QMake for build configuration, and lupdate for internationalization. These utilities streamline the workflow for building, debugging, and localizing cross-platform software.

Key Features:

Qt Designer for visual UI creation
QMake build system configuration
Internationalization tools (lupdate, lrelease)
Qt Creator IDE integration

Use Cases:

Designing graphical user interfaces for desktop applications
Translating and localizing software for multiple languages
Compiling and deploying Qt-based C++ applications

Alternatives:

CMake – Modern build system generator, often used instead of qmake for complex projects.
Glade – GTK+ interface designer, specific to the GNOME/GTK ecosystem.
