|

| 20 | Mesa is primarily developed and used on Linux systems.
|
|---|
| 21 | But there's also support for Windows, other flavors of Unix and other
|
|---|
| 22 | systems such as Haiku.
|
|---|
| 23 | We're actively developing and maintaining several hardware and
|
|---|
| 24 | software drivers.
|
|---|
| 25 | </p>
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | <p>
|
|---|
| 28 | The primary API is OpenGL but there's also support for OpenGL ES 1, ES2
|
|---|
| 29 | and ES 3, OpenVG, OpenCL, VDPAU, XvMC and the EGL interface.
|

| 76 | These have been removed from the Mesa source tree and distribution.
