About

This is the blog of the Enlightenment project.

Enlightenment (or just E for short) is a GUI environment (a window manager and a file manager in one) for the UNIX-like systems.

The Enlightenment Foundation Libraries (EFL) are a collection of libraries that make up the foundation of the DR17 window manager. While their original intent was solely to support the window manager, the libraries quickly took on a life of their own, which is a contributing factor to the delays of the window manager itself. These libraries are so powerful, flexable, and easy to use that they present a strong platform on which to develop nearly any graphical application you could think of.

This blog is dedicated to provide news about events in the community, new futures in both E and EFL as well as in the applications in the CVS tree. You may also find other interesting articles, HOWTOs and tutorials.
