2. Project Summary
   2.1. Project Description:
    Clutter is an open source software library for creating fast, visually rich and animated 
    graphical user interfaces.

    Clutter uses OpenGL for rendering but with an API which hides the underlying GL complexity
    from the developer. The Clutter API is intended to be easy to use, efficient and flexible.



    
4. Technical Description:
    4.1. Details:
    Clutter currently features the following:

    * Scene-graph of layered 2D interface elements manipulated in 3D space via position, grouping,
      transparency, scaling, clipping and rotation.
    * Frame based animation engine providing path interpolation, transitions and other custom
      effects via Behaviours and Timelines.
    * Scriptable JSON based layout and animation file support.
    * Advanced input event handling.
    * Custom Pango renderer providing efficient internationalised UTF8 text rendering.
    * Support for high end Open GL features such as Shaders and FBOs.
    * Support for media playback with GStreamer, Cairo graphics rendering and GTK+ embedding
      are available via optional add-on libraries.
    * Object oriented design via GObject with a familiar GTK+ like API.
    
    Clutter aims to be non specific -- it implements no particular style, but rather provides
    a rich generic foundation that facilitates rapid and easy creation of higher level tool kits
    tailored to specific needs.
