The LiMo Platform is a software development platform developed by the LiMo Foundation (founded by a group of cellular handset makers and network operators) for handheld devices,[1][unreliable source?] particularly mobile phones. It is based on the Linux operating system, has a modular plug-in architecture, and supports DRM. LiMo application developers will be able to use SDKs to write managed code running in a Java virtual machine, browser apps for WebKit, and native code.[2]

Orange and Access have licensed LiMo to develop cellular telephone handsets.[3][unreliable source?]
