# What is Elementary?

This is a VERY SIMPLE toolkit. It is not meant for writing extensive desktop applications (yet). Small simple ones with simple needs.

It is meant to make the programmers work almost brainlessly but give them lots of flexibility.

- Getting Started - Go here to quickly get started with writing Apps

# Organization

One can divide Elementary into three main groups:

- Infrastructure list - These are modules that deal with Elementary as a whole.
- Widget list - These are the widgets you'll compose your UI out of.
- Containers List - These are the containers which hold the widgets.

# License

LGPL v2 (see COPYING in the base of Elementary's source). This applies to all files in the source tree.

# Acknowledgements

There is a lot that goes into making a widget set, and they don't happen out of nothing. It's like trying to make everyone everywhere happy, regardless of age, gender, race or nationality - and that is really tough. So thanks to people and organizations behind this, as listed in the Authors page.
