Berkelium extension for Kivy

Berkelium is a BSD licensed library for offscreen rendering via Chromium project. Check http://berkelium.org/ for more information about it. We are using a patched version of Berkelium, available at https://github.com/tito/berkelium (branch chromium8-alternate-bin)

Notes

• This extension require Kivy 1.0.7 minimum !
• This extension is under development. It's actually working and tested only for Linux 64 bits.
• MacOSX can't be supported at the moment, since Kivy require Python 64bits, and Chromium can't be built under 64bits on MacOSX.
