Framework
Lancelot is consisted of a couple of subprojects. The main application and applets are the things visible to users.
For the developers, more interesting are liblancelot and PUCK.
- liblancelot - a library that contains all UI widgets and layouts
used in the Lancelot project. It is a base framework for everything
in the world of Lancelot. It is built on top of Plasma. It provides
a set of custom widgets, layouts and has a few more advanced concepts
for allowing for quicker development of Plasma-based applications.
Note: liblancelot is still under heavy development, which means that the future versions will not be ABI nor API compatible with the present one. - PUCK - The Plasma User Interface Compiler reads a user interface definition out of a XML-based file format, and creates a corresponding C++ implementation.
The documentation for liblancelot can be found at api.kde.org/.../lancelot, while PUCK is fully undocumented at the moment.
