Release notes:

 

* This is a developers snapshot, intended for testing and feedback

* Requires clutter core >= 1.0.0

* Provides better bindings for the Cogl API

* Adds more examples ported from the clutter core interactive tests

 

Also, I'm proud of announcing that PyClutter gained a new maintainer:

Bastian Winkler did most of the job of porting PyClutter to the new

upstream API, and then some more by providing first class bindings to

the COGL API and porting some of the interactive tests in Clutter to

Python.

 

Many thanks to Young-Ho Cha as well, for fixing some issues during the

porting and making the API more pythonic.

Clutter is an open source software library for creating fast, visually

rich and animated graphical user interfaces. Clutter uses OpenGL or

OpenGL/ES to provide hardware acceleration to user interfaces. Clutter

can be used as a canvas or as a base for writing a full toolkit on both

desktop and embedded devices. Clutter is portable on various platforms,

being developed on Linux and tested on Windows and OSX with native

ports.

 

Clutter has integration libraries for quickly developing applications

with GTK+, GStreamer, Mozilla and other libraries.

 

PyClutter is the collective name for the Python bindings for the Clutter

core API and integration libraries

 

The PyClutter bindings allow you to write canvas-based applications

in a Pythonic and object-oriented way, freeing you from having to care

about the casting and the memory management of the original Clutter C

API, and yet remaining close to its spirit.
