I am proud to release Karma version 0.2 today. karma.js is a library for
manipulating HTML 5 and SVG. It was developed specifically for educational
applications but can be used for general development You can test out the demos here http://karma.sugarlabs.org. You need Firefox
3.5 or Google Chrome/Chromium to run the demo. We now have a well-documented
API and a four part tutorial. The Karma Project aims to create high-quality open-source educational
software using openweb technologies for the Sugar desktop educational
environment. karma.js is a javascript library for manipulating HTML 5 and
SVG in any context. New Features:
* Stable API http://karma.sugarlabs.org/docs/index.html
* Now much more reliable
* Pre-loading of SVG images
* 10+ example lessons Features that didn't make it into Release 0.2:
* Internationalization mechanism for inline text
* New browsing layout (Chakra) I am particularly proud of the Karma version of "Conozco a Uruguay". You can
try it out online right away.
