## What it is
QtXlsx is a C++ library for Qt5 that reads, writes, and edits Excel .xlsx files without requiring Microsoft Excel. It works on any platform Qt5 supports and can be built as a Qt addon module or included directly via qmake.

## Use cases
- generate xlsx files from c++ without excel
- read data from excel spreadsheets in qt app
- edit existing xlsx files programmatically
- export qt application data to excel
- parse spreadsheet files cross-platform

## When to choose
- you are building a Qt5/C++ application that needs Excel file support
- you need a dependency-free, cross-platform xlsx reader/writer without Microsoft Excel
- you want to integrate via qmake as a module or source

## When to avoid
- you need a Python, .NET, or other non-C++ solution (use openpyxl, EPPlus, ClosedXML)
- you need active development or recent feature additions
- you are not using Qt and want a standalone C++ spreadsheet library

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: file-system, parser, serialization
- domain: files, spreadsheets, developer-tools, cross-platform
- platform: cpp, cross-platform, windows
- tags: xlsx, excel, qt5, spreadsheet, ooxml, c++, linux, macos
