    \title Using hardware acceleration on embedded platforms.

    \ingroup best-practices

    \section1 Abstract
    This document describes how to use hardware acceleration for fast
    rendering on embedded platforms supported by Qt. In short, it explains
    how the graphics pipeline works. Since there might be differences to 
	how the APIs are being used on different embedded platforms, a table
	links to documentation dedicated to platform specific documentation
	for each supported hardware acceleration API.

    \section1 Supported platforms
	Since there might be differences to how the APIs are being used on
	the different embedded platforms, this table provides you with links to
	pages dedicated to platform specific documentation for each
	supported hardware acceleration API. Click the API link for the
	platform to go the correct documentation.
