fpGUI is a 32bit and 64bit 2D graphics toolkit that doesn't rely on any huge third party graphics libraries like GTK+ or Qt. It talks directly to the underlying graphics system (GDI, X11 etc). fpGUI is supported on Unix, Linux, BSD, OpenSolaris, Mac OS X (via X11), Windows, and embedded systems like ARM-Linux and WinCE.
fpGUI is open source and free software, licensed under a Modified LGPL license. The toolkit has been implemented using the Object Pascal language, and is meant for use with the Free Pascal compiler.
An archived source download of fpGUI, pre-built binaries for DocView (fpGUI's Documentation Viewer), and pre-build documentation of fpGUI, FPC Language Reference, FPC's RTL & FCL is available for download on SourceForge.

At the moment the AggPas-powered Canvas class is optionally enabled via the AGGCanvas compiler define. Some more testing will be done over the next few weeks, before I will consider making it the new default Canvas class.
I tried to make this new canvas class 100% backward compatible. So for those wanting to test this new Canvas, it should be as simple as a recompile.
Here is a work-in-progress screenshots of the new canvas in action.

Ready or not, the new website has gone live! I just couldn't justify delaying it any longer.
I've been developing this website on-and-off for nearly 6 months (planning was over a year). Yes, I hate HTML, and that is why it took so long. I split the website into multiple areas, and will add more areas, links and content as time goes by.
With the new website, I would also like to promote some community projects based around fpGUI. So if you have developed some cool project or utility using fpGUI, please let me know via the newsgroups, so we can add your project information.
The website code is also hosted in the SourceForge Git repository. So if you find any mistakes or omissions in the website - patches are welcome. ;-)
As always -- have fun browsing the site and using fpGUI.

The pre-built HTML and INF class documentation will be made available during the next few days. This will include updated Class Documentation for fpGUI, FPC's RTL, FPC's FCL and a special version of FPC's Language Reference document in INF format. I will also include pre-built binaries of DocView (fpGUI's own help viewer) for Linux and Windows, plus instructions on how to integrate DocView with Lazarus IDE and MSEide so you can have context sensitive help from within each IDE's code editor.
For more information as to what is included in the v0.7 release, please see the change-log page.
