 ## Roadmap

 - [X] Replace `setup.py` by `pyproject.toml`, using `setuptools` (e.g. see `guidata`)
 - [ ] Add more unit tests: the ultimate goal is to reach 90% code coverage

+### Supported Qt versions and bindings
+
+The whole PlotPyStack set of libraries relies on the [Qt](https://doc.qt.io/) GUI toolkit, thanks to [QtPy](https://pypi.org/project/QtPy/), an abstraction layer which allows to use the same API to interact with different Python-to-Qt bindings (PyQt5, PyQt6, PySide2, PySide6).

+Compatibility table:
+
+| PythonQwt version | PyQt5 | PyQt6 | PySide2 | PySide6 |
+|-------------------|-------|-------|---------|---------|
+| 0.16 and earlier  | ✅    | ⚠️    | ❌     | ⚠️      |
