The composite server Cage 0.3 has been released, utilizing Wayland and designed for the isolated launch of individual applications in kiosk mode. Use cases for Cage include creating home automation systems, demonstration stands, electronic signage, and self-service terminals. The project's code is written in C and is distributed under the MIT license. <\/p>\n
The interface in Cage is limited to a single application, and the user cannot exit this application or access the operating system. The screen is bound to one output device, and all auxiliary dialogues are displayed centered on the screen without the ability to move or resize. Data can be pasted in and extracted through the clipboard. Applications are directly tied to the launched graphical environment; for example, to create a kiosk with the Epiphany browser, it suffices to execute «cage \/usr\/bin\/epiphany», and after exiting the program, the composite server<\/a> also terminates its operation. <\/p>\n
