Involved Projects and Packages

The Android design language relies on traditional typographic tools such as scale, space, rhythm, and alignment with an underlying grid. Successful deployment of these tools is essential to help users quickly understand a screen of information.

To support such use of typography, Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) introduced a new type family named Roboto, created specifically for the requirements of UI and high-resolution screens.

Designer: Christian Robertson

From http://andrewpaglinawan.com/category/typefaces/#quicksand:
Quicksand is a sans serif type family of three weights plus matching obliques and a dash version for display and headings. Influenced by the geometric-style sans serif faces that were popular during the 1920s and 30s, the fonts are based on geometric forms that have been optically corrected for better legibility.

SQLite is a small fast embedded SQL database engine.

DBD::SQLite embeds that database engine into a DBD driver, so
if you want a relational database for your project, but don`t
want to install a large RDBMS system like MySQL or PostgreSQL,
then DBD::SQLite may be just what you need.

It supports quite a lot of features, such as transactions (atomic
commit and rollback), indexes, DBA-free operation, a large subset
of SQL92 supported, and more.

The perl-Devel-Leak package

The 'File::LibMagic' is a simple perlinterface to libmagic from the file-
4.x or file-5.x package from Christos Zoulas
(ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/file/).You can use the simple Interface like
MagicBuffer() or MagicFile(), use the functions of libmagic(3) or use
the OO-Interface.Simple Interface MagicBuffer() fixme

HTML::TokeParser::Simple is a subclass of HTML::TokeParser that uses
easy-to-remember method calls to work with the tokens. Rather than
try to remember a bunch of array indices or try to write a bunch of
constants for them, you can now do something like:

$token->is_start_tag( 'form' )

Instead of

$token->[0] eq 'S' and $token->[1] eq 'form'

Prima is an extensible Perl toolkit for multi-platform GUI development.
The toolkit contains a rich set of standard widgets and has emphasis on
