huge shout-out to https://github.com/ianprime0509/zig-gobject

Not the gobject bindings we deserve but the gobject bindings generator we need.

(context: this has effortlessly generated bindings for gtk3, glib and even gtk_layer_shell (forever denied admission into the pantheon).
and the bindings are actually good)

#zig #glib #gtk #gobject

Finally got my YouTube live chat API client library working with the peel C++ bindings generator for #GLib / #GObject. I built a small coroutine task abstraction that makes working with GLib-style async functions much cleaner.

Still a lot more work to do to with caching/refreshing OAuth tokens and processing of messages, but hopefully I can get a prototype libpurple plugin (the ultimate goal) working fairly soon

Nothing to see here, just a MacBook Neo and a GNOME OS laptop talking to each other via the #p2panda #GObject bindings for #Go. They even found each other via mDNS!

(Needed a 5 line patch to the Rust build config, but that's it - everything just kind of works!)

Mark your calendars 📆

The third Reflection Developer Labs session will be on April 14, 15:00 UTC!

This time we'll dive into an actual code example using the p2panda GObject bindings.

Let me share some updates about peel 😀

As a reminder, #peel is a project that implements modern  bindings for #GObject libraries, most notably the #GTK stack, and now also #GStreamer.

🧵

Sebastian @slomo has been tirelessly working (and me, helping and reviewing and merging his work) on improving the GStreamer+peel experience, resulting in many improvements all over peel, and also in GStreamer, GLib, and other components of the stack.
