    Design notes

    Calamares is currently split as follows:

    • libcalamares - the backend library,
    • only depends on QtCore, yaml-cpp, Python and Boost.Python,
    • provides a job queue and generic jobs,
    • comes with 3 job interfaces: C++, Python and process (the latter is very limited);
    • libcalamaresui - the frontend library,
    • same dependencies as libcalamares, plus QtWidgets and other Qt modules,
    • comes with a module loading system, for different kinds of plugins,
    • themeable so branding can be done easily (plugin-based, TBD),
    • presents a bunch of pages in a scripted order, enqueues jobs in the backend library;
    • calamares - the main executable,
    • a thin wrapper around libcalamaresui, starts up and plugs together all the parts.
