Introduction and Roadmap
See where LVGL was started and what are our plans for the future.
Introduction
-
The first version of LVGL was published on GitHub in 2016. As it usually happens it was started as a one-man project. Since then almost 100 contributors joined the development and LVGL became one of the most popular embedded graphics libraries.
-
Nowadays LVGL is downloaded every 5 minutes and it's among the most popular C libraries on GitHub. Besides attracting thousands of users LVGL became engaging for huge companies too who offer LVGL in their ecosystem. In 2020 we established LVGL LLC to provide a solid background for the library and to develop new ways to aid UI development. Take a look at our roadmap below.
