This is an introduction to fluid foams for non-specialists. After presenting some applications and modeling of foams in general, we focus on ideal two-dimensional fluid foams at equilibrium. We discuss : the interplay of topology, geometry and forces; the central role of pressure and energy; an analogy with 2D electrostatics; the role of disorder; the minimal perimeter problem.
