Use the powerful foundations of the GNOME platform to create consistent and
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
flexible user interfaces. Make your applications available to the widest
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
audience by deploying them to other platforms. Standard UI elements are
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
accessible by default, and it is easy to add accessibility support to any
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
custom UI elements that you create.

For applications with standard controls which
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
would be familiar to most users, use
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
<link xref="tech-gtk">GTK+</link>. Every application
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
that is part of GNOME uses GTK+, so use it to be consistent, and to access
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
the many widgets and features such as printing support and CSS theming.
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
|

Animations, effects and fluid
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
layouts are easy with
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
<link xref="tech-clutter">Clutter</link>, and it also
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
supports touch input and gestures.

<link xref="tech-cairo">Cairo</link>. Cairo is used
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
for drawing widgets in GTK+, and can also be used to output to PDF and

|
Packit |
1470ea |
SVG.

<link xref="tech-webkit">WebKitGTK+</link> makes

it easy to add web functionality to your

GTK+, Clutter and WebKitGTK+ have built-in support for
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
assistive technologies with
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
<link xref="tech-atk">ATK</link>. Use Orca, Caribou
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
OSK, and the GTK+ built-in accessibility tools, or build custom tools on top
|
|
Packit |
1470ea |
