Development

Development collects the engineering view of PlexyDesk: what areas are active, where the important subsystems live, and which reference pages should be consulted while the project evolves.

Current engineering themes

PlexyDesk development is focused on making the compositor, shell, and toolkit behave like one deliberate desktop environment. That means work tends to concentrate on:

compositor and surface management behaviour
shell-owned UI such as the dock, menubar, and window framing
renderer and visual effect consistency
growth and clarification of the PlexyUI toolkit
source-backed documentation that stays close to the code

Source map

Area	Why it matters
`src/`	Core compositor, backend, renderer, protocol, input, and shell implementation
`lib/`	Client-side support libraries and event loop code used by applications
`include/plexy/`	Public API headers, including the current PlexyUI interface surface
`examples/`	Small reference programs that demonstrate application patterns
`apps/`	Application experiments that exercise the runtime and UI toolkit
`tasks/`	Engineering notes, implementation summaries, and optimisation work
