Auto complete coming to Workbench 🛠️

Besides writing GTK faster than light, I want to use it to help newcomers discover and learn about widgets and properties.

Thanks @andyholmes for the help!

#GNOME #GTK

GNOME reshared this.

Maybe I can give Gnome app development another shot now. I also always struggle with the build system and exporting the things from Workbench.

@triskelion that would be GNOME Builder

Workbench is more of a code playground/sandbox to learn and prototype

Damn this is cool! I'm playing around with some early Multiplex V2 layouts and Workbench has been making it basically as pleasant as doing it on the web, but having language server support like this will be an incredible improvement!
in reply to Sonny

That's awesome! Experimenting with Gtk4/Libadwaita has become so much more enjoyable using Workbench!
in reply to Sonny

as a gtk newcomer, this is gonna be insanely handy! 😄

@rolandlo not quite, I'm also using a patched blueprint-compiler. I'll try to get it in gnome nightly soon and announce it on twig.

Ok, great! I'm planning to write an article on gnulinux.ch about it once it can be tested conveniently, spreading the message.
in reply to Sonny

Sure! I'll just start playing around with it earlier than that.
