| - | Maliit provides a flexible and cross-platform input method framework, including a virtual keyboard. It works on all MeeGo user experiences, and in other GNU/Linux distributions. | + | Maliit is the input methods solution used in MeeGo. See the [http://www.maliit.org official project website] for more information. |
| | | | |
| - | == Goals ==
| + | This wiki contains information about Maliit in MeeGo. Information that is not MeeGo specific is found upstream. |
| - | | + | |
| - | Maliit aims to be ''the'' input method project for MeeGo and other GNU/Linux-based embedded/mobile platforms. To achieve this we should provide: | + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | '''A solid input method framework'''
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | This includes support for traditional input methods such as hardware and virtual keyboards. More exotic input methods should also be possible, such as handwriting recognition and voice input, and special purpose input methods such as date/time pickers, tag clouds, etc.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | '''A core set of input methods'''
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | The default set of input methods should demonstrate the core capabilities of the framework and provide a good user experience that device manufacturers and integrators can use easily.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | We also aim to:
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | '''Empower third-party developers'''
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Customizing existing input methods or developing powerful new input methods should be simple, regardless of whether it is for profit, research or fun.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | '''Build a diverse community of contributors'''
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Employees from different companies, freelancers, members of academia, hackers and volunteers should all be welcomed and encouraged to contribute to the project.
| + | |
