Greetings fellow E-landers. Over the easter weekend the aboundance of candy gave me a tase for eye-candy :), while browsing my home dir i fell upon ematrix written by Ibukun Olumuyiwa and i saw that it was sweet!!! :) Then it hit me wouldn't it be great if i could use it as a screensaver ... so after converting it to a Evas smart object and modifying some e17 code ... lo and behold it was delicious and i enjoyed it ( see screenshots in archive ). But then i pondered wouldn't it be wonderful if it could be plugable so i started on a journey that led me to .... modules, i then took a few minutes to figure out the best way to do it as a module, but, that soon ended when i realised that it would require too much work and i was HUNGRY! So a few more minutes of brainstorming and ....
Enter Esa. Esa stands for Esmart Animation (yeah the name kinda sucks...). Basically it's a Evas smart object wrapped around regular evas code that can be loaded dynamically (did someone say plugin?). So the code once loaded can be manipulated as an evas object. Right now there are 3 demos available: - default : code taken from evas test written by Rasterman ( graphics by Raster?) - ematrix : code written by Ibukun Olumuyiwa ( graphics by Ibukun?) - pixelman : code written by Rephorm ( graphics by Rephorm?) Esa could loosely be compared to Edje running an animation in a loop. Esa modules being pure evas code, Esa can (well should haven't tested it yet ...) also be reused in it's modules. Esa is not yet complete, it needs testing, pluging, filling, auto-tooling, and *ing :D I've already started testing in e17 by as that was my primary goal and it works pretty well, have a look in the screeshot dir for a "sneak peek".
