A free and modular front-end framework for developing fast and compelling user experiences.
 
A set of templated controls and tools based on QQC2 and Kirigami is shared among the Maui applications. MauiKit helps quickly build UIs that follow the Maui HIG and bring ready-to-go tools for different platforms, such as Android and Linux. 
  • Cross-platform. Components are ready to be easily used and work on Android and Linux.
  • Convergent. Easily create applications that work on mobile devices and desktop computers.
  • It is built with Kirigami. MauiKit is built using the KDE Kirigami framework and Qt Quick Controls 2.

Maui Shell

Maui Shell is a convergent (read: adaptable to multiple form factors) desktop shell (read: interchangeable definition to refer to the graphical workspace of an operating system, not referring to the desktop form factor specifically or exclusively; also see “Paper paradigm“). 

A desktop shell or graphical shell is but one of the components of a desktop environment (read: an implementation of the desktop metaphor made of a bundle of programs running on top of a computer operating system that shares a standard graphical user interface). 

Not to be confused with a Unix shell (read: command-line interpreter or command-line shell) that provides a command-line user interface for Unix-like operating systems, i.e., Bash; and not to be confused with the shell scripting language (read: A shell script is a computer program designed to be run by the Unix shell, a command-line interpreter.)



Comparable examples include:

  • Gnome Shell+Phosh.
  • Lomiri (formerly Unity8).
