Enlightenment is a window manager and desktop environment for Linux and UNIX-based operating systems. It is also a suite of libraries known as EFL (the Enlightenment Foundation Libraries) to create user interfaces with much less work than using traditional toolkits. Enlightenment libraries power millions of systems, from mobile phones to set top boxes, desktops, laptops, game systems and more.
