Sugar is implemented on top of existing or modified operating systems and hardware. Sugar Activities ("Sugar-enhanced applications") are accessed by the user from the Sugar platform. Many Activities, such as Browse, take advantage of library collections. Some collections are included with Sugar; others may be installed from the Web or created locally.

[[Sugar System Stack (ASCII Text)]]
Sugar Labs has borrowed names from [[wikipedia:Carbohydrate | carbohydrate]] chemistry, which includes sugar, to personalize and help distinguish pieces of Sugar software. See [[Taxonomy]] and [http://www.mail-archive.com/sugar@lists.laptop.org/msg03195.html On the Naming of Sugar] for background.
