## What it is
ElaWidgetTools is a C++ component library that brings Microsoft Fluent UI styling to Qt Widgets applications. It provides a rich set of custom widgets (app bar, dialogs, calendars, cards, menus, etc.) with light/dark themes for Qt 5.12+ and Qt 6.

## Use cases
- give my Qt desktop app a Fluent Design look
- modern-looking widgets for Qt Widgets application
- custom title bar with minimize maximize close for QWidget
- light and dark theme components for C++ GUI
- Fluent UI style buttons dialogs and cards in Qt
- build a Windows 11 style desktop application in C++

## When to choose
- you are building a Qt Widgets desktop app and want a modern Fluent UI appearance without QML
- you need a broad set of pre-styled widgets (dialogs, pickers, navigation) out of the box
- you target Windows and Linux desktop platforms with Qt 5.15+ or Qt 6

## When to avoid
- you need a QML/Qt Quick based Fluent UI implementation
- you require third-party contributions or PRs, since the project does not accept them
- you need mobile or web deployment, as it targets desktop platforms only
