Eliud core

eliud

• Eliud technology is open source technology.
• The technology allows to build apps and/or websites. Today, app content can include photo galleries, pages with videos and images (html), social media, chat with or between members, your shop / shopping cart, photo sliders, documents, and more. A complete list below.
• Eliud is a layer on top of Flutter. Flutter is an open-source UI software development kit created by Google. Flutter allows to develop cross platform applications for iOS, Android and web. Flutter supports Linux, macOS, Windows and Google Fuchsia. This hasn't been tested with eliud packages yet.
• For those who know Worpress: Eliud is to Flutter as Wordpress is to html:
  • Html allows you to construct webpages. However, html requires some level of technical knowledge about building webpages.
    • Wordpress and many other similar technologies allow people without knowledge of html to build webpages and websites.
  • Flutter allows to build websites and apps, or even Windows, Linux, macOS and Google Fuchsia apps. However, Flutter requires programming skills and technical knowledge.
    • Eliud allows people without programming skills and technical knowledge to build cross platform apps and websites.
• Eliud is pluggable technology, allowing developers
  • to extend / add functionalities by means of plugins / packages.
  • to change look and feel through using styles.
• A website / app built with Eliud consist of its core Eliud package + one or more Eliud plugins. The app is constructed by configuring it. Configuration, images and videos are stored in Firebase database and Firebase storage.
