+wxWidgets is a cross-platform API for writing GUI applications
+on multiple platforms that still utilize the native platform's
+controls and utilities.
+
+webkit2gtk is an optional dependency of this package. This will
+provide webview support.
+
+nanosvg is another optional dependency. By default, the
+SlackBuild script checks for the nanosvg system headers and
+disables SVG support if they are not found; you can force
+different behavior (e.g. using wxWidgets' internal copy of
+nanosvg, or always disabling SVG support) with the "NANOSVG"
+environment variable (see wxWidgets.SlackBuild for details).
+
+Notes:
+
+1. This package is NOT built using --enable-stl by default.
+ If you need to enable stl, use:
+ STL=yes ./wxWidgets.SlackBuild
+
+2. If you need the wxWidgets API documentation, you need to
+ install graphviz, then run wxWidgets.SlackBuild with
+ APIDOC=yes in the environment. You won't need the API docs
+ unless you're developing software.
+
+This package provides 2 interfaces, GTK3 and Qt5.
+By default, wx-config will be linked to GTK3, but if you want
+to use Qt5, use INTERFACE=qt variable to override.
