From 9f210aa7385aa2cb9027150bcb104030cc8f8f27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Robillard Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2025 15:59:47 -0500 Subject: Update README to reflect the current intent of the library The old writing here put a heavy emphasis on Gtk in Qt and vica-versa, a situation which is discouraged at best. So, rewrite it to be about loading UIs that use a "native" windowing API. --- README.md | 12 +++++------- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 2273095..a0bfd19 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -1,16 +1,14 @@ - + Suil ==== -Suil is a library for loading and wrapping LV2 plugin UIs. -For more information, see . +Suil is a library for loading and wrapping LV2 plugin UIs.
