Cross-K Visual GUI App engine Based on kivy 2.0 Python3

Based on kivy 2.0 python framework. GPL-3.0 License with avavailable source code.
CrossK is a small but conspiratorial app engine based on kivy opengles2.0 in background.
Created to make future fast and quick. No builds losing time any more.

https://github.com/zlatnaspirala/cross-k

Objective:

Create multiplatform target builds with real time net driver.
Basic : 2D UI visual app creator. Future features player, networking, 3d/2d canvas based engine.
Because html5 is excluded for now from this story maybe some real time networking makes fit for
all platforms.
In basic we can create server-client native application for any platform (desktops, android)
This is the beginning of a beautiful friendship
