LittleV Graphical Library is C written software libraray which helps you to add modern and innovative graphical user interface to your embedded application.
The library supports high level graphical effects, like anialaiasing, opacity, color fade etc.
The LittlevGL is a graphics library which allows you to create graphical user interfaces (GUI) from the most simple monochrome designs to amazing GUIs for high resolution TFTs. No double buffering is required to use transparency and smooth animations.
The GUI can be built from simple objects like screens, buttons labels, images etc.
The graphics library is written in C and it is completely hardware independent. You can even run it in a PC simulator without any embedded hardware.
The "misc" modul is required to use use the library. (https://github.com/littlevgl/misc)

## Porting
The following functions has to be provided
* hal/disp `disp_fill(x1, y1, x2, y2, color)` to fill area with a color
* hal/disp `disp_map(x1, y1, x2, y2, &color_array)` copy a color map to an area
* hal/indev `indev_get(id, &x, &y)` get the *x* and *y* coordinates from an input device (e.g. touch pad)
* hal/systick `systick_get()` get a system tick with 1 ms resolution
* hal/systick `systick_elapse(prev_time)` get the elapsed milliseconds sience *prev_time*
See the [example HAL](https://github.com/littlevgl/hal) repository!
