These tutorials describe how to get started developing software for the OLPC XO environment.
Sugar Activity Tutorials
- Sugar Activity Tutorial - This Hello World activity shows the basics of creating a python activity for Sugar using basic GTK operations. The bulk of the tutorial is focused on setting up the activity directory structure and boilerplate
- Tuquito's Hello World! using GTK+Glade rather than hand-coded GTK
- Tubes Tutorial - Activity sharing using Tubes
- OLPCGames/Pygame
- Game development HOWTO -- download a zip file, run a command, register the resulting activity, run it, now make it do something fun and run it again
- OLPCGames Presentation (Openoffice presentation, Powerpoint) - Slides describing how to create a working bundle manually (largely obsoleted by OLPCGames 1.2's skeleton builder)
- Red Hat Magazine Tutorials (Block Party)
- Introducing Sugar Article describing how to use sugar-jhbuild to set up a development environment
- Anatomy of an Activity - A more detailed look at Sugar activities (Hello World style introduction to creating a new activity)
- Converting a PyGTK application to Sugar: Part 1 - Part 1 in a series of tutorials on how to port existing applications to Sugar. This tutorial goes into the internals of the game BlockParty in preparation for converting it into a Sugar activity.
- Converting a PyGTK application to Sugar: Part 2 - Part 2 in a series of tutorials on how to port existing applications to Sugar. This tutorial goes into converting the BlockParty game into a Sugar actvity (very involved).
- Translation/Internationalization
- Python i18n -- Python's built-in internationalization services and there use described as applied to a PyGame project
