  For the general public

XO applications are called Activities. This page lists both Preinstalled activities and others you can install yourself. The names of activities link to more information about them; the download links, if downloaded to an XO, will automatically install and show up in the activity bar.

For general information about activities, see the laptop.org website.

Note that this page lists all activities. Not all are yet usable. Please add new activities that you have worked on, and see (and contribute to) the Activity guidelines page.

Specific collections of activity and content are available; see our collections, and the WorldWideWorkshop and GCompris activity sets, and repositories of Etoys projects (including those at Potsdam University).

  For Developers

Add new activities by following the instructions on the Creating an activity page (Please be sure to read our human interface guidelines in addition to the activity guidelines). When adding your new activity to this page, follow the template syntax as described on the Template:Activity page.

ExecCommand: A very simple utility. On launch, this activity either launches a predefined Unix command, or starts an graphical dialog and queries the user for what command to run. Useful for starting vncviewer or xmms. To see an example of this activity modified to just start XMMS, check out Xmms.xo. All that was modified was bin/exec-script.sh, activity/activity.info (for the name), and activity/icon.svg. Of course, this requires XMMS
