Litl OS is an operating environment written by Litl for their Easel webbook. The underlying operating system is a mobile/embedded distribution of Ubuntu provided by Canonical, Ltd.. The user interface is written largely in Mozilla's dialect of Javascript using the gjs binding to access GNOME and Clutter UI elements. Software updates are automatically delivered nightly over the Internet connection and the OS backs up the configuration information online at Amazon S3 using a web service running on Google's App Engine and the Django framework. Litl OS can synchronize information from the Internet to the webbook and between webbooks. Portions of the operating system's source code can be obtained by Litl owners on DVD from Litl.
