Description: Java desktop environment and software distribution | ||
Extended description is not empy. | ||
This projects allows you to do your daily work from inside the JVM - just like | ||
Java is your operating system. Your usual Linux workflow is preserved, with | ||
apt-get install some-library, make and run replaced by install maven | ||
dependencies, build with Javascript and run - in a everything runs in the same | ||
JVM philosophy. In addition, the projects brings an API for third-party | ||
applications. Once your project builds against this API, it can be published in | ||
Maven, and becomes available as a market application - like in Android. But | ||
unlike with Android's market, with Maven, dependency management is properly | ||
done, and not everything is repackaged again in every new application, saving | ||
lots of space. Already existing applications include a file manager, script | ||
shell, web and e-mail, pdf viewer and open street map. Hence, the project | ||
bridges a gap between Linux and Java, aleviating the need to repackage every | ||
single Java project to make it available in Linux. Already repackaged | ||
applications can help though, especially the ones with binary hooks, and this | ||
is where Linux can make a difference, in terms of Java extensibility - think | ||
bluetooth, media or java3d for instance - each of which a whole separate topic. | ||
Lastly, Linoleum has the bootstrap property, meaning it can build itself, just | ||
like the Linux kernel, but unlike Android, which can not be used to develop | ||
itself. |
