Canola application and framework for rich GUI
- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri (http://blog.gustavobarbieri.com.br/contact/)
- Intended audience: Application Developers
- Talk type: presentation
- Abstract/description
- Canola is a fancy media center, with a rich graphical user interface designed with touch screen in mind. More than a great application, it is a great framework as well, enabling extending Canola or creating similarly rich programs like Carman or your own! Initially developed by Instituto Nokia de Tecnologia (INdT) in Brazil it was released as GPLv3 and community start to build around it. Today we have more companies supporting the development, the software was ported to other platforms like Ubuntu and OpenMoko SHR. Moreover, 5 of 10 Maemo's Google Summer of Code projects are around Canola, from media extensions like Picasa integration to non-media related as Remember the Milk (To Do list) and Bittorrent.
- The framework behind Canola is called Python-Terra, which will be presented simultaneously. A brief overview of its components, followed by explanation of its plugin system will serve as base of understanding of Canola application. Real examples of extensions and new application will be demonstrated as result.
- Author bio
- Gustavo lead the development of Canola1 and designed and implemented Canola2 together with co-workers at INdT. Now he runs a company that does software development and services, among them Canola2 development.
