* [Qt](https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/) - The UI used on all other platforms.
* [Android UI](https://developer.android.com/develop/ui) - The native UI on Android.
The Qt UI is available on platforms where it is not the default as well (except on Android). To build the
Qt UI, install the Qt dependencies for your platform, and enable the Qt UI via CMake:
The Qt UI is available on platforms where it is not the default as well (except on Android).
You can pick the UI using the `LADYBIRD_GUI_FRAMEWORK` option, for example to enable the Qt UI:
```bash
# From /path/to/ladybird
cmake --preset default -DENABLE_QT=ON
cmake --preset default -DLADYBIRD_GUI_FRAMEWORK=Qt
```
To re-disable the Qt UI, run the above command with `-DENABLE_QT=OFF`.
