[Sugar-devel] Starting with the contributions to sugar labs

[James Cameron]

Thanks Swathi.  Can you be more specific?

The "desktop environment" is a term we borrow from Linux because
that's the architectural layer that Sugar occupies on a system.  But
it does not deliver a desktop user experience.

Sugar starts as an X11 session, and offers a main menu, called the
Home View.  This is the Python jarabe module, from the repository
sugarlabs/sugar.

Apps are called "activities", and are where most of the user
experience occurs.

Opportunities for contributing to activities are far more numerous
than for working with the Sugar session.
