Re: lgi reviews

[Nils Nordman <nino@...>]

Hi Patrick,

for what it's worth I've been using lgi for my current project, and
have been enjoying it. It has good coverage of not only Gtk but all
the libraries from the g*-stack, such as gio, glib, etc. The developer
has been quick with feedback with the problems I've encountered. These
problems by the way have mostly stemmed from the lack of proper
library reflection information from upstream (i.e. missing annotations
from the Gtk developers, et al), and not lgi per se. I saw some other
thread discussing cross platform GUI development, and I don't know
whether lgi would be a viable option for say Windows or OSX as I've so
far only used it with Linux. But apart from that I encourage you to
try it out.

Cheers,

Nils
