The Haiku operating system

Olivier Coursière 8ff49081b9 Usability improvements in StartTeamWindow - Enlarge the window's width so a larger part of the path will fit in the TextBox. - Apply the existing path to the BFilePanel before browsing. It improve usability when you paste a path or type a new one in the TextBox then click on the browse button to choose the application or fine tune the directory. Please not that it is a best effort feature : if the file or the directory does not exist, the BFilePanel will fallback to the old behavior : showing the previously selected file/directory in the session (or home directory).

Haiku

Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs

Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.

Goals

Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
Clean, clear, concise code.
Unified desktop environment.

Trying Haiku

Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.

Compiling Haiku

See ReadMe.Compiling.

Contributing

Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!

Contributing code

Contributing documentation

The main piece of documentation that still needs work are the API docs (found in the tree at docs/user). Just find an undocumented class, write documentation for it, and submit a patch.
