Welcome to Flapps

You've entered a world of small, light-weight and portable graphical programs for your computer. Do you:

• Want to save as many system ressources for some programs that rightfully demand them?
• Prefer to keep things plain and simple for a clean look?
• Work with embedded components?
• Like to explore alternative paths with some fresh ideas?
• Love taking things to the extreme and keep running that old Pentium 90 machine just because you can?

If you've answered yes to at least one of these questions, you've come to the right place!

What is this?

Flapps stands for "FLTK Applications". The Flapps project aims at collecting and providing FLTK based programs necessary to build a rich yet frugal desktop. The vision is to build one using FLTK as the only toolkit on the system.

FLTK?

FLTK, the "Fast, Light Toolkit" is a GUI toolkit for Linux, Unix, OSX and Windows. Just like the name suggests, it is much, much more light-weight then e.g. GTK+ or Qt.

Package repository

You can find the packages here.

Thoughts about the FLTK desktop

What is needed and what is already there? Here's a page with a list of applications and some thoughts about this topic.

Just a static web page Are you serious?

Dead serious. But thanks for asking.

Alright. But still - why is this page looking so boring?

Because I've been busy with other tasks and thus didn't have the time to write some CSS to make it look pretty.
