Licence
Project Elevate is developed under the GPL.

Cairo
The Cairo library has its own site . You can find more information about using it there. Subscribe to the mailing lists if you are really interested in Cairo Graphics!

Why sqlite?
Sqlite is a mini SQL database intended to be embedded into applications. It is light and fast. It is ideal for avoiding dedicated database applications (Mysql, Postgres)

Developers Information

The bleeding edje code of Project elevate is offered via the Subversion Interface of sourceforge. Use this command (should be a single line in the terminal).

svn co https://elevate.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/elevate/trunk elevate

to get the latest code. You can also browse the latest code.

Currently Elevate depends on the following:

• Glib from gtk+ project
• Cairo graphics
• sqlite3

While the main code is written in C you need to be familiar with glib development. If you have programmed gtk/gnome applications you are good to go. Otherwise you can find more information in the GTK+ site. Browse the Glib 2.0 api to get the basic concepts. Cairo Documentation is also available for your viewing pleasure.
