Qt has a long and exciting history. Born in Norway, raised in Finland by two different parents, and finally grew up to be a global citizen. Our growth journey includes ups and downs, which have made us pivot and refocus along the way. In the beginning, the focus was on the desktop while Qt 2 brought Embedded into the limelight. Qt 4 was the first actual cross-platform framework, and Qt 5 initially focused on Mobile. After listing to Helsinki Stock markets, we have been growing independently and towards being truly the cross-platform framework that our founders envisioned from the start.

​Qt有着悠久而激动人心的历史。出生于挪威，在芬兰由两个不同的父母抚养长大，最终成长为全球公民。我们的成长之旅包括起起伏伏，这让我们在前进的道路上转向并重新聚焦。一开始，人们的注意力集中在桌面上，而Qt2则把嵌入式技术带到了聚光灯下。Qt4是第一个真正的跨平台框架，Qt5最初专注于移动设备。在赫尔辛基股票市场上市后，我们一直在独立发展，并朝着我们的创始人从一开始就设想的真正的跨平台框架迈进。

Desktop and Mobile have always been in our core's very essence

桌面和移动设备一直是我们的核心

Even when Embedded device development has grown to be our largest customer segment, Desktop and Mobile have always been in our core's very essence. One of our main themes for the ongoing strategy period is strengthening the Desktop and Mobile offering even further. Strengthening means investments, including new, dedicated developers, and an overall emphasis on helping our desktop and mobile customers. In 2022, we will spend almost 25% of our R&D investments in Desktop and Mobile related features. Thus being one of the biggest development efforts in any of the Qt business lines in 2022.

即使嵌入式设备开发已经成为我们最大的客户群，桌面和移动设备始终是我们的核心。我们当前战略期间的一个主要主题是进一步加强桌面和移动服务。强化意味着投资，包括新的、专注的开发人员，以及全面强调帮助我们的桌面和移动客户。2022年，我们将在桌面和移动设备相关功能上投入近25%的研发投资。因此，这是2022年Qt所有业务线中最大的开发努力之一。

Strengthening our Desktop and Mobile offering really took off during 2021. We separated Desktop and Mobile as its own business line to get enough attention for its unique needs. In 2021 we released support for Windows 11, macOS 11, Android 11, and iOS 13 targets. We fixed 622 Desktop and Mobile related bugs and released proper 3D particle system support and continuous support for Qt Widget-based desktop applications. We ensured a working development environment across an extensive array of platforms, released mesh morphing animations and instanced rendering as well as WebAssembly and multimedia in Qt 6. To mention a few topics on top of all the generic enhancements, we have done.

加强我们的桌面和移动产品真正起飞了2021。我们将桌面和移动设备分开作为自己的业务线，以满足其独特的需求。在2021，我们发布了对Windows 11、MACOS 11、安卓11和IOS 13目标的支持。我们修复了622个与桌面和移动设备相关的错误，并发布了适当的3D粒子系统支持和对基于QtWidget的桌面应用程序的持续支持。我们确保了一个跨广泛平台的工作开发环境，发布了网格变形动画和实例渲染，以及Qt 6中的WebAssembly和多媒体。除了所有通用增强功能之外，我们还介绍了几个主题。

On top of the direct product investments, we are investing in our community. We have hired a new Community Manager to organize and manage our Community efforts. We have also hired a new Learning Manager to lift our eLearning to a whole new level. These are just the first steps to start showing the love that our community deserves and expects.

除了直接的产品投资之外，我们还在我们的社区进行投资。我们聘请了一位新的社区经理来组织和管理我们的社区工作。我们还聘请了一位新的学习经理，将我们的在线学习提升到一个全新的水平。这些只是开始展示我们社区应得和期待的爱的第一步。

Qt is and will be a future-proof, truly cross-platform framework

Qt现在是，将来也将是一个经得起未来考验的真正跨平台框架

All that being said, we continue investing in the Desktop and Mobile area to keep our offering compelling now and in the future. We'll bring new features, support the latest Desktop and Mobile target platforms, provide both native and branded look-and-feel and provide the long-term support for our stable APIs. Our customers can rely on to get the same support that they have used to with Qt offerings. Qt is and will be a future-proof, truly cross-platform framework.

​尽管如此，我们仍将继续在桌面和移动设备领域进行投资，以使我们的产品在现在和未来都具有吸引力。我们将推出新功能，支持最新的桌面和移动目标平台，提供本地和品牌外观，并为我们稳定的API提供长期支持。我们的客户可以依靠它获得与Qt产品相同的支持。Qt现在是，将来也将是一个经得起考验的真正跨平台框架。
