+## 3rd Party Frameworks
+
+### JUCE
+
+JUCE makes adapting to different audio APIs easy, which we don't need because we
+have our own code for that. It is plug-in framework that makes many things easy
+at the price of flexibility.
+
+### Qt
+
+Qt might be in a distant future an option worth of considering because we would
+get rid alot of Cocoa and Windows specific code. In addition the flexibility
+how things can be done would be compared to VSTGUI from a different dimension.
