What is Enlightenment?
Enlightenment. What is Enlightenment?.
Some people affectionately refer to Enlightenment as E because typing or saying the whole word is a bit of a mouthful. Early in its history, which began back in 1996, E was just a window manager for X11.
Since then, E has now become much more. In the process of building the next generation of the window manager, we have created a suite of libraries for doing data storage and retrieval, scene-graph rendering with a canvas, theme encapsulation, compiling and demand-loading, event loop, inter-process communication, freedesktop.org specification handling, virtual machines, video codec abstractions, widget sets, and more.
