Hi Thiago,

The classes in src/ves implement the core rendering library for OpenGL
ES 2.0.  The classes in src/kiwi provide convenience for combining VTK
with VES rendering.  For example, vesKiwiDataLoader,
vesKiwiDataConversionTools, and the subclasses of
vesKiwiDataRepresentation.  The vesKiwiViewerApp ties together a lot
of these pieces and presents a single interface, so that it is easier
to implement an Android or iOS app in Java or Objective-C.  Your
Java/Objective-C code mostly just need to call methods on
vesKiwiViewerApp.  If you're designing a mobile app that is similar to
KiwiViewer, then you could reuse vesKiwiViewerApp, or derive from it
and extend the behavior.  But, if your app has unique requirements
that are different from those found in KiwiViewer, then you might not
want to use vesKiwiViewerApp at all, instead you could just directly
use the classes from VES and kiwi, or you could design your own app
interface class.  In that case, vesKiwiViewerApp can serve as an
example implementation.
