# The devel/appstream-glib port

## appstream-glib-0.2.8 – library for AppStream metadata

## Description

    This library provides GObjects and helper methods to make it easy to
    read and write AppStream metadata. It also provides a simple DOM
    implementation that makes it easy to edit nodes and convert to and from
    the standardized XML representation.

    What this library allows you to do:

     * Read and write compressed AppStream XML files
     * Add and search for applications in an application store
     * Get screenshot image data and release announcements
     * Easily retrieve the best application data for the current locale
     * Efficiently interface with more heavy-weight parsers like expat
