Hitori

Following on from earlier efforts to make Hitori a flatpak app, it’s now available as a GNOME nightly app (click here to install), built from git master. Thanks to hard work by Alex Larsson and others, this was ridiculously easy (see the wiki page on ...

I’ve been playing a bit with xdg-app recently, and just spent half an hour packaging Hitori as an xdg-app bundle. It was remarkably easy — in fact, it only took 7 commands. If you want to install it, make sure you’ve got xdg-app installed, then: What works? Playing the game Use of X11 Icons Desktop […]

Public service announcement: if you’re a bindings author, or are otherwise interested in the development of GIR annotations, the GIR format or typelib format, please subscribe to the gir-devel-list mailing list. It’s shiny and new, and will hopefully serve as a useful way to announce and discuss changes to GIR so that they’re suitable for […]

After a couple of discussions at the DX hackfest about cross-platform-ness and deployment of GLib, I started wondering: we often talk about how GNOME developers work at all levels of the stack, but how much of that actually qualifies as ‘core’ work which is used in web servers, in cross-platform desktop software1, or commonly in […]

Last week I was in Berlin at the GNOME DX hackfest. My goal for the hackfest was to do further work on the fledgling gnome-clang, and work out ways of integrating it into GNOME. There were several really fruitful discussions about GIR, static analysis, Clang ASTs, and integration into Builder which have really helped flesh […]

Here in sunny Berlin, progress is being made on documentation, developer tools, and Club Mate. I’ve heard rumours of plans for an updated GTK+ data model and widgets. The documentationists are busy alternating between massaging and culling ... [More] documentation pages. There are excited discussions about the possibilities created by Builder.
