@micahilbery@slothsneed.coffeeIt took so long to find the energy to figure it all out, but I finally got the iPod Classic running RockBox reliably with my flac music library. And it's using the adwaita theme to match my laptop lol. I am so happy to be able to use it for listening to my music especially since I kinda broke my HiFiWalker H2 a few months ago.

libadwaita @libadwaita@tech.lgbtInterestingly it appears that the #gnome circle website is still using #cantarell fonts instead of the new #adwaita fonts. I wonder if they will update this
@lynnesbian@fedi.lynnesbian.spaceis there somewhere i can find something like a "dos and don'ts of using #GTK4 and #adwaita"? 
i've been reading through random issues and MRs on various #GNOME repos, and i'm finding some really useful comments about things that you should(n't) be doing. things like "using a listview inside a box is wrong and broken" - this is really useful knowledge, but i can't find it actually formally documented anywhere.
@lynnesbian@fedi.lynnesbian.spaceif there are any #GNOME designers/artists (gnomes? gnome heads? gnomish sourcerers? gnaphic gnesigners?) seeing this, does it comply with the HIG in your opinion? what would you suggest changing if not?
the cheesecrater icon uses the standard rustacean image, which doesn't have that smooth, rounded look the HIG usually suggests, but i lack the skill to make a "blobby" version of ferris. 
the crates browser, with its triple-pane layout (third screenshot), is the most complicated of them, but it's based on the design of the crates.io website, which displays the readme alongside a right-aligned "metadata" pane.
(also: either it's very hard to write descriptive alt text for UI design screenshots, or i am very bad at it. possibly both.)
I was not initially sold on GNOME's new font Adwaita Sans, but seeing my code in it has very quickly made me a believer. Brackets and braces are so clear!
I almost feel like I am writing from the future, already using the "new" #gnome #adwaita fonts, Adwaita Sans and Adwaita Mono. 
Adwaita Sans is a variant of Inter, and Adwaita Mono, the Menlo style of Iosevka.
So, they're not really new fonts, but I'm still excited.

-barista & C novice) @der_istvan@chaos.socialHey gnome folks!
I have some free time and want to start out learning to build libadwaita apps. Where do I even start? Is there anyone here who started gnome app development recently and still remembers how they got started? Or some veterans with a good understanding of recent best practices for gnome app development?
While exploring #Flathub, I came across Iconic, a little and cute #Libadwaita app made by @youpie to create custom #Adwaita folder icons in a very easy way.
I made several icons for some folders.
If you like to keep things organized with the appropriate icons, but maintaining the Adwaita folder icon style, I recommend it.
@erindesu@tech.lgbtI think I am almost complete with the GNOME Installer mockups in terms of design and after I finish and tweak some stuff, I can go and actually install Windows?
@cassidy@blaede.familyAdwaita is really pretty freaking great. It makes designing responsive apps just… easy?? Here’s an update to Butler, my Home Assistant app, for GNOME 47 and Adwaita 1.6.
Update coming soon to Flathub!
@chfkch@ruhr.socialNow i am thinking, is my app broken. Am i using the wrong components? I am using an adw::ApplicationWindow.
Any thoughts on this?
I know there are many things that could go wrong, so i ask the broader audience here.

@cassidy@blaede.familyAnyone on COSMIC able to show me what the theming does to my Home Assistant app? I don’t have an install around right now, but I’m curious how the (off by default) GNOME theme override stuff works in conjunction with in-app user-set theming.

You can grab a Flatpak artifact from the Flatpak (Devel) CI run, download/extract it, then install it e.g. with `flatpak install --user com.cassidyjames.butler.Devel.flatpak`.
So how do you actually build #Adwaita / #GTK4 apps? I thought I'd use Builder/Cambalache to prepare the design, but I have no idea what to do.
Is there an article somewhere to describe the structure and best practices? Official docs aren't really targeting the total newbies, especially if you are not writing in C.
While @suraj_sloth is working on the #UnifiedPush connector side in #Chatty I got a chance to add the code for registering/unregistering #Matrix push gateways in #libcmatrix and Chatty (with this I can readily round trip messages up to the UP distributor):
@danirod@fosstodon.orgA project I'm working on has surpassed 200 stars on GitHub and it is not even finished yet.
Therefore, to give it even more pressure on me to finish the first version of this app, here is me introducing to the fediverse Cartero, a #GTK HTTP client to test web APIs and make requests graphically.
It is written in #Rust and it uses modern GNOME technologies such as #Adwaita and Blueprint.
Here is the canonical screenshot for the current nightly version as of this post.

@micah@ilbery.familyTIL that there is an Adwaita theme for RockBox! It's quite nice!

Manuel is working hard on a new version of Apostrophe! It's the long-awaited port to GTK4, Libadwaita, and the other awesome new stuff 
The new version is a significant overhaul, so testing and filing bugs is appreciated!
Install the beta by adding the Flathub Beta repo:
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub-beta https://flathub.org/beta-repo/flathub-beta.flatpakrepo
And the install the app:
flatpak install flatpak-beta org.gnome.gitlab.somas.Apostrophe
