Maliit is an input method framework for computers with particular focus on implementing virtual keyboards. Designed mostly for touchscreen devices, Maliit allows the inputting of text without the presence of a physical keyboard. More advanced features such as word correction and prediction are also available.

Originating as part of MeeGo,[6] Maliit is free software licensed under LGPL. Maliit ships as a standard component of LG webOS,[7] Plasma Mobile,[8] SailfishOS,[9] LuneOS,[10][11] and Ubuntu Touch.[12]

History

Maliit was originally developed as part of MeeGo by Nokia who eventually shipped it as part of MeeGo Handset "Day 1" software platform.[2]

In the early 2010s, Maliit was deployed as a standard component of Nokia N9,[9] KDE Plasma Active,[13] OLPC devices,[9] and Ubuntu Touch phones.[9][14][15]

After the MeeGo project ended, Maliit was transferred into an independent project by free software consulting firm Openismus.[16] The first formally independent release was 0.80.0 on Template:Dts.[17]

Maliit 0.99, released on Template:Dts, switched from Qt 4 to Qt 5.[9]

In May 2016, a KDE developer announced that instead of Maliit, QtVirtualKeyboard had been integrated into KDE Plasma 5.7.[18][19] In September 2020, Maliit was made the default keyboard in Plasma Mobile.[20][8]

On Template:Dts Maliit 2.0 has been released.[21]

Features

Among Maliit's features are a plugin-based architecture, word correction and prediction, multitouch, and context sensitive layouts.[22]

When running on Linux kernel, handling of the input hardware relies on evdev. Maliit supports X11 as well as Wayland.[9]
