===Sugar Application Stack===
 +
 +
Sugar is designed to encurage child that have not been exposed
 +
or indoctrinated in any exiting computing environment. It has
 +
Activities rather that programs or applications. Sugar is
 +
implemented on top of existing or modified operating systems
 +
and hardware. The Activities are accessed by the user in Sugar.
 +
One of the Activities, Browse, has lets the student examine
 +
library collections. Some of these are included with the
 +
Sugar system. Others may be installed from the web or they
 +
can be created locally.
 +
 +
The hierarchy of the system is:
 +
 +
- Library Collections (Browse Activity)
 +
- Activities
 +
- Sugar

- OS

- Hardware
