I have a project for which I am trying to chose a technology, my first preference is QML, its a kiosk for the most part. Its supposed to run on a Raspberry Pi. I want to know is the technology there and can I rely on it for a product ?
If its a kiosk-based project and you are interested in running QT, you would do well to check out Mir and mir-kiosk. @greyback and @alan_g can point you in the right direction.
Hi all.
If I understand correctly, Canonical won’t to use Mir and will use Wayland? Version of the package will not be mir-kiosk but wayland-kiosk? Or will they work in the same?
mir-kiosk is maintained and going on to exits (there are canonical customers using it) … it might switch to the wayland protocol in the backend at some point but for us as user or developer making use of mir-kiosk this wont make any difference…
since wayland is only a protocol, a “wayland-kiosk” snap wouldnt make any sense
If I understand correctly, Canonical won’t to use Mir and will use Wayland?
The default window manager for Ubuntu Desktop will be Gnome (and that will default to Wayland where possible). But with Ubuntu Core the supported graphics stack is Mir.
