Intro
Maemo provides an open source development platform for Nokia Internet
Tablets and other Linux-based devices. It is built from components
widely used in open desktop and mobile systems. We strive to make maemo
open, accessible and useful to all developers wanting to squeeze the
possibilities of the mobile desktop and the Internet.
The maemo SDK contains the tools needed to create and port integrated
applications, replicating the Internet Tablet environment in your PC.
The Hildon Application Framework is a good entry point to understand
the peculiarities of this platform. A shortcut for you to consider.
If you are familiar with GTK+/GNOME technologies and the Debian tools
you will quickly find your way. We are broadening the offering to
different programming language bindings and development environments
that are available, or in the works.
This website offers official documentation, tutorials, bug reporting
tools and repositories of unstable versions for testing. It also
provides services devoted to and maintained by the maemo community:
software catalog, project hosting, documentation wiki, Planet news plus
mail and IRC support channels.
Thousands of developers are already active in the maemo project. Join us! (it's in your hands)
