µGFX applications can run natively (without emulation/simulation) on any Linux system. This means that µGFX can run without any problems on a Raspberry Pi. This is a step-by-step setup & configuration guide that will explain everything necessary to run µGFX on a Raspberry Pi.
Introduction
The most common question asked in this context is why to run µGFX on an embedded Linux device. Today's single board computers running Linux are powerful enough to run X and a complete desktop environment. Therefore, GUI applications can be written using desktop GUI frameworks such as Qt or GTK. Running µGFX instead on such as system has two main, but very important advantages:
- Dependencies: ToDo
- Resource requiremenets: ToDo
Used utilities
The following utilities will be used in this tutorial:
However, this guide has been kept as generic as possible. Following the same steps should allow running µGFX on any embedded Linux system.
