EFL 1.0 Is Finally Released · Slashdot Mirror

Posted by timothy on Saturday January 29, 2011 @06:02AM from the just-when-you-least-expect-it dept.

Lisandro writes "The Enlightenment crew has finally released the first version of the Enlightenment Foundation Libraries, which the E17 desktop is built on." Adds reader mu22le: "Among the Enlightenment libraries hitting version 1.0 are Eina (core data structure), Eet (data encode/decode and storage), Evas (canvas and scenegraph rendering ), Ecore (core mainloop, display abstraction and utility), Embryo (small virtual machine and compiler), Edie (GUI layout and animation), E_Dbus, Efreet (handling of freedesktop.org standards), and Eeze (udev wrapping)." Getting it right can take a while -- a preview of the EFL libraries first appeared in 2004. Enlightenment has never stopped looking cool.

Some time ago there were hints & speculations that Samsung bada mobile OS might use some Enlightenment libraries.

Considering that Samsung hired Carsten Haitzler, the main figure behind E17, that wouldn't be too far fetched.
