GDK (GIMP Drawing Kit) is a computer graphics library that acts as a wrapper around the low-level drawing and windowing functions provided by the underlying graphics system. Originally developed on the X Window System, GDK lies between the X server and the GTK+ library, handling basic rendering such as drawing primitives, raster graphics (bitmaps), cursors, fonts, as well as window events and drag-and-drop functionality.
