Trolltech
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Trolltech (formerly known as Quasar Technologies) is a computer software company from Oslo, Norway. They provide software development platforms and frameworks, as well as expert consulting services.
Their flagship product is Qt, the easy-to-use, multi-platform, C++ Graphical User Interfaces (GUI) framework. In addition to the GUI toolkit, Qt also comes equipped with a variety of packages such as data structures and a networking library. The popular free Unix desktop environment KDE uses Trolltech's Qt library. Trolltech also employs several KDE developers.
In 2001 Trolltech introduced Qtopia which is based on Qt. Qtopia is an application platform for Linux-based devices such as mobile phones, portable media players and home media. It is also used in many non-consumer products such as medical instruments and industrial devices.
Trolltech was founded by Eirik Chambe-Eng and Haavard Nord in 1994. They started writing Qt in 1991, and since then Qt has steadily expanded and improved. Trolltech completed an IPO on the Oslo Stock Exchange in July, 2006
