Development
Documentation of the Qt Quick Version (Under development)
This is a new version of GCompris based on the Qt Quick technology. Our users expect us to deliver a version that runs on Desktop and on Tablets. Sadly with the Gtk+ version these was no easy way to achieve this. The decision has been taken to rewrite completely GCompris on a new framework. This is a departure from the Gtk+ development framework that was based on the C and the Python language. Now the development will be done with a mix of QML, JavaScript and C++.
The rewrite will not happen overnight and we need your help. If you are interesting in discovering the Qt Quick technology while doing something useful, you can do the port of a GCompris activity.
- Qt Quick official repository or GitHub mirror
- Qt Quick development process
- Qt Quick Migration status
- Contribution process
New contributor
If you want to develop a new activity for GCompris a good start is to follow the instructions on this page : An exercise for new contributors.

The Drawing board
These are pages to hold the different discussion for things we are working on:
GSoc 2018
GSoC 2018 In order to avoid too early commitment to GSoc 2018, we decided to set a date before which we will not take in account any proposal or discussion about GSoc. This is important to avoid competition between GCompris contributors. Also next year, code quality (code cleverness, variable names, comments) ode quality will be as important as involvement. Please understand that we will not accept any discussion about GSoc before 01/03/2018.
