Clutter is a GObject based library for creating fast, visually
rich graphical user interfaces. It is intended for creating single
window stylised applications such as media box UI's, presentations
or kiosk style apps in preference to regular 'desktop' style
applications.
rich graphical user interfaces.

<para>
Clutter's underlying graphics rendering is OpenGL ( version 1.2+ )
based. The clutter API is intended to be easy to use, attempting
to hide many of the GL complexities. It targets maily 2D based
graphics and is definetly not intended to be a general interface
for all OpenGL functionality ( yet ).
Clutter semantics work by having a stage (a window) and then
adding actors (widgets) to the stage and manipulating via the
actor api. Actors can contain child actors (ClutterGroup for
example) and be manipulated as a whole.

<para>
As well as OpenGL Clutter depends on and uses GLib, GObject,
GDKPixbuf and GStreamer. Clutter is released under the GNU Library
General Public License (GNU LGPL)
Animations and visual effects can be created via the use of
timelines and behaviours. Timelines provide accurate frame based
animations. Behaviours further extend this by taking a timeline, a
control function (ClutterAlpha) and then applying to actors as to
modify a property as a function of time.
