For more specifics, see Category:Software ideas.

These pages contain various ideas for improvements or changes to the various software elements of the OLPC. This category could also point to pages about entirely new software applications. However keep in mind that there is a difference between Edutainment and and Playful Learning. And we want Playful Learning instead of Edutainment.

Mathematics

  • Calc for more basic tasks, BC for more difficult ones, and SC or a GUI based spreadsheet, perhaps.
  • LaTeX, this is free and quite powerful editor
  • Mathematica for children, for modeling and calculating

Updates

  • An update/software manager to handle updates and new software that come out after the laptop is given to the child
