Sugar is a Desktop environment thought for kids. It's especially known to be provided in XO computers of the One Laptop Per Child (olpc) project. Because Kiwix is developed on GNU/Linux like Sugar, there is no major problems running Kiwix on Sugar... but they are still issues to fix.
The first difficulty is that Kiwix should be compiled statically (in a Sugar activity), which is currently not fully finished for GNU/Linux... but this already works for MS Windows and MacOSX.
The second difficulty is to integrate Kiwix in Sugar, which means:
- Redesign the User Interface with XUL and CSS
- Create the activity
- Deal with the journal and such specific Sugar things
For that task we need a developer with expertise with Sugar and GNU Autotools.
Follow the implementation on this page.
