# PyQt5 - Comprehensive Python Bindings for Qt v5
|
|
Qt is set of cross-platform C++ libraries that implement high-level APIs for
|
accessing many aspects of modern desktop and mobile systems. These include
|
location and positioning services, multimedia, NFC and Bluetooth connectivity,
|
a Chromium based web browser, as well as traditional UI development.
|
|
PyQt5 is a comprehensive set of Python bindings for Qt v5. It is implemented
|
as more than 35 extension modules and enables Python to be used as an
|
alternative application development language to C++ on all supported platforms
|
including iOS and Android.
|
|
PyQt5 may also be embedded in C++ based applications to allow users of those
|
applications to configure or enhance the functionality of those applications.

## Installation
|
|
The GPL version of PyQt5 can be installed from PyPI:
|
|
pip install PyQt5
|
|
`pip` will also build and install the bindings from the sdist package but Qt's
|
`qmake` tool must be on `PATH`.
|
|
The `sip-install` tool will also install the bindings from the sdist package
|
but will allow you to configure many aspects of the installation.
