If you're interested in using Typescript for GNOME apps, you can now use the new Typescript SDK Extension. I've also published a Typescript Template you can use as a starting point for your apps.
I’ll share this here since somebody might find it interesting, and the #GNOME discourse instance doesn’t receive that much traffic on its own: discourse.gnome.org/t/looking-…

#GNOME devs: should i (continue to) contribute patches that keep your apps working in other DEs, or should i stop? one role of an umbrella organization is to encourage consistency across sub-projects and i’m getting conflicting signals now that leave me hesitant/unsure.
in the past i’ve upstreamed changes to e.g. nautilus (gnome files) to keep it working for non gnome-shell users. those fixes were well-received and the maintainers were super inviting in a way that suggested they’d appreciate future changes in the same line.
but that gnome-control-center explicitly does not start outside gnome-shell is a strong hint that they don’t want patches that improve things for non gnome-shell users, and so i shouldn’t invest in upstreaming fixes like that anymore. how broadly do i interpret this?
Does anyone know any way to verify that the account at floss.social/@gnome is official?
I suggested to them they might verify their web link, but as far as I can tell the haven't? Also emailed GNOME via their official website to check if this is their account, but didn't receive a response.
Any ideas? Anyone know someone at GNOME who could verify?
I'm not suggesting it's fake by the way, it's just frustrating not to be able to verify! :)
#Amberol 0.10.0 is out! After a tragic mess with a #GNOME run time update, and with lots of fixes accumulating over a development branch, I decided to spin up a release. Highlights: - tweaked UI, to avoid confusing the waveform control and the volume control - improved scaling of textures using #GTK 4.10 - ability to restore the last playlist at startup - optional background playback
Plus the usual lots and lots of small fixes, tweaks, and performance improvements.
A new #Flathub website launched at #LAS2023 last weekend! 🎉 The redesigned site brings a fresh look and a verification feature. Developers can now log in and verify ownership of their apps, earning a blue check mark. Check it out here: flathub.org/
After a month of changes to libipuz, I finally got the new editing interface working. These changes make it possible to differentiate between broken puzzles and correct-but-unhelpful puzzles, with an API to fix the latter. As a result, I extended the #GNOME #Crosswords Editor to edit barred puzzles.
Note: barred puzzles are basically impossible to set, and I'm in awe of anyone who is able to make a grid work. Maybe someone can make a cool puzzle with this.
