Thanks to everyone involved !

I’d like to thank my employer, Igalia, for allowing me to participate; and the GNOME foundation for sponsoring the hackfest

#gtk #gnome #igalia


Day 1 was more subdued, but it was very productive, with discussions about rendering architecture, GL and Vulkan, and accessibility. Matthias and I have also worked on making the Text interface for accessible objects public, and we’re pretty close to finishing the merge request

Day 2 of the 2024 GTK hackfest—today we have a lot of visitors, so the place has gotten lively with discussions and work on the whole stack

I added support for libadwaita AlertDialog to Blueprint

That's all that should be needed to support GNOME 46 changes

Playing with the new libadwaita dialog in Workbench

I didn't expect AdwDialog to render and behave fine in the preview

There are issues with auto-reload - might have to move it to a separate preview window but I'm having fun until then.

Playing around with Cairo, using the Rust bindings! I don't have any practical ideas to utilize what I'm learning yet, but it's fun to experiment with nonetheless ✏️

My reaction when I discover a meson.build script running "cargo build" in the repository of the first example program I opened from the ones listed on the gtk-rs documentation page.

Is this common in the rust world when interacting with primarily C based libraries?

#rust #gtk #rustlang


I know cool people don't like to use them ( @tbernard 👀 ) but this really deserves the visibility of an infinite hashtags soup

It looks absolutely fantastic and I can't wait to make use of them; as a user and as a developer.

Currently working on two #gnome apps!

- Scripter: A simple app for basic scripts ⌨️ & calculations 📐 [GitHub: github.com/david-swift/Scripte…]
- Flashcards: Create, edit, and study flashcard sets 🎓 - easily import your existing Quizlet sets [GitHub: github.com/david-swift/Flashca…]

Both are written in #swift using an interface similar to #swiftui for #gtk and #libadwaita [GitHub: github.com/AparokshaUI/Adwaita]

PSA: if you are spawning callbacks with something other than g_idle_add you should think hard about what priority you want and hopefully you can use G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT_IDLE or lower.

(Instead of G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT)

If you have experience maintaining a GitLab CI runner on macOS, and you wish to contribute to building and testing GLib and GTK on macOS, please join the GNOME Infrastructure channel to help maintaining the macOS server provided by the GNOME Foundation, otherwise we will have to retire it.

Some very vocal #LibreOffice devs consider that client-side window decorations (for example #GTK HeaderBar kind of things) are "NOT a #UX #design issue", and that it's all about the burden of maintaining that across different OSes/platforms.

Yeah… I might buy their argument if LibreOffice had the guts to actually commit to only one (or two) UI layouts and toolkits, instead of maintaining *seven* UI layout choices, to begin with 🙄️

Are you interested in working on GNOME, writing Rust apps, or working with Fonts? If so, you may be interested in taking a look at gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-f… :)

This port may take a while, and I greatly appreciate any help available. I've laid out a list of tasks to be done before merging, and if anyone wants to take something on let me know and we can work together.

If you want to help with the effort, please join #fonts:gnome.org on Matrix :) (matrix.to/#/#fonts:gnome.org)

Wanna help out an old-school utility that just recently accomplished its port to #GTK 4? The "File Roller" compressed archives utility needs your help to fix Drag & Drop files/folders extraction to #GNOME Files (a.k.a. #Nautilus). Technical investigation and/or patches would certainly be quite welcome. gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/file-ro…


it's been some time since the last Muzika update, but I (and some people that joined along the way) didn't stop working on it.

A few changes:

1. Column view for playlists & albums on larger screens

2. Decent (not perfect) mobile support

3. All links are now underlined for better visibility/a11y

4. Simplified code & improved perf (not yet perfect)

5. We now have flatpak builds (CI)

6. The app now supports translations

etc, etc.

This is @halfmexican; GNOME Outreachy student excited that their effort to make a modern and sandboxed Camera demo for Workbench has paid off 🛠️

Well done! 🎉

Thanks @philn and @slomo for your help!

Somebody PLEASE make something like github.com/vadimdemedes/ink-ui but for GTK.

I would be a LOT more inclined to create native #linux #gtk apps if I could create them using #react or something similar.

Creating interfaces using GTK's native APIs feels like programming in the 90s.

A new version of Amberol music player is out with a couple of new features omglinux.com/amberol-0-10-rele… #gnome #gtk #opensource


#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.


Over the Easter holidays I experimented a bit with building Rust code with meson instead of cargo.

Specifically I tried building a GStreamer plugin with a few dozen Rust dependencies, but the same applies in a similar way to GTK/GNOME applications or literally anything else.

A write-up of the results with a lot of details can be found here: coaxion.net/blog/2023/04/build…

Got all gestures wired up in Identity: there's drag-and-drop heavily inspired by Loupe with its beautiful thumbnail (naturally, in Identity it shows playing videos!), there's drag to pan when zoomed in, there's click to "select" a video tile.

I love how easy it is to do drag-and-drop while showing whatever in the thumbnail in #GTK 4 (especially now that sizing and hotspots work ;)). Thanks @sophie and @brainblasted for things I stole from Loupe and @alexm for help with gestures!

Using #GTK and #Libadwaita in #swift Attempt Number 2.

Instead of using GIR to generate the code, use hand-written bindings.
More work? - Yes

Full coverage? - No

Better API and easier to use? - Yes


I spent yesterday evening trying to see how to make apps that use #libadwaita (the latest UI for #GNOME), and walked away with a streak of anger over a surprising lack of documentation and examples.

#GTK and #GNOME app development have always been a quest that involves throwing a ring in a fiery mountain, while hoping for the best, but in the 25 years since GTK+'s introduction, it has only gotten worse, it just looks prettier now. sigh. #linux


Bit of a an odd mood to today so wanted to check if I can brighten things up a bit by adding some color and transparency to #phosh. (Basically just a quick hack to see how the performance is on the #librem5 and it's quite good). Background image by @francois .

Sometimes I find it very hard to know how to look for/describe #GNOME bugs. I could use some help with this one. It's a bug in #libadwaita as I can trigger it both in GNOME Files and GNOME Settings. I just have no clue how to describe it. I think searching on "dialog" might be too narrow of a search, and I also don't know what to give as extra info (platform, version...). I can't seem to find it in the gitlab repo, which surprises me as it's such a major regression...
