Services provides transparency for users and convenience for activity developers across varying platforms (and their varying dependencies) as well as across Sugar releases. Services is a method to support this variety of activity dependencies and variety of dependency versions. In other words, Services is a common deployment system for activity dependencies; it is lightweight like [[Development_Team/Sugargame|sugargame]] and like Qt.

The major difference from existed sugar deployment techniques is that Services has a point of view of the activity developer. It doesn't exclude (because it reuses them) Sucrose releases or GNU/Linux distribution initiatives, but it does give activity developers an additional (optional) instrument.
