Activities/Sugar Network

Summary

Sugar activity to distribute Sugar Network client and demonstrate Sugar Network functionality.

Sugar activity way to use Sugar Network has limitations:

• Install dependencies manually;
• No activity launcher windows;
• No fast way to switch to Sugar Network window, it is regular Sugar activity.

But it provides easy way to try Sugar Network from regular Sugar installations. To use Sugar Network on regular basis, look for other options.
