## What it is
aqtinstall is an unofficial command-line installer for the Qt SDK that downloads prebuilt Qt binaries, docs, and sources across Linux, macOS, and Windows. It is designed for CI environments and scripted setups where the official graphical Qt installer cannot be used.

## Use cases
- install qt sdk in ci pipeline
- download qt binaries from command line
- set up qt for github actions without gui installer
- install specific qt version and compiler toolchain
- script qt installation on windows linux and macos
- fetch qt sources and documentation offline

## When to choose
- you need Qt in a headless CI environment
- you want to automate or script Qt SDK installation
- you need a specific Qt version or mirror the official installer no longer offers

## When to avoid
- you prefer the official graphical Qt installer with license handling
- you need official Qt Company support or commercial licensing workflows

- function: cli, developer-tools, deployment
- domain: developer-tools, cross-platform
