Developing an application for GNOME in Rust

Описание: openSUSE.Asia Summit 2024, Tokyo, Japan
Speaker: Alessio Biancalana, SUSE

Developing an application for GNOME can be quite an adventure, and I discovered both the bright side and the dark side of it on my own skin building a Pocket clone (it's my first desktop application!) for Linux.

In the end it can be quite satisfying, as we have got plenty of tooling to successfully come out with something working:

We have GTK;
We can write our memory safe software in Rust leveraging every library in the Rust ecosystem and the GTK bindings;
We can optionally use libraries like Relm to declaratively implement reactive interfaces.

Writing desktop applications can be a nice way to contribute to the Linux ecosystem.

Let's see together how to write our first application for GNOME without any pain. Of course it can be something usable on other desktop environments as well!
