@section work How does Evas work?
Evas is a canvas display library. This is markedly different from most
display and windowing systemas as a Canvas is structural and is also a state
display and windowing systems as a Canvas is structural and is also a state

targets. Evas handles the logic between a structural display via its' state
engine, and controls the target windowing system in order to produce

The advantage of such a system is that it is simple, and gives a program
tight control over how something looks and is drawn. Given the increasing
comlpexity of displays and demands by users to have better looking
complexity of displays and demands by users to have better looking
interfaces, more and more work is needing to be done at this level by the
internals of widget sets, custom display widgets and other programs. This
means more and more logic and display rendering code needs to be written

Evas can be seen as a display system that stands somewhere between a widget
set and an immediate mode display system. It retains basic dislpay logic,
set and an immediate mode display system. It retains basic display logic,
but does very little high-level logic such as scrollbars, sliders, push
buttons etc.
