Floreal Technologies publishes tutorial on building GTK apps in Haskell with Adwaita
A tutorial series by Feriel Choutri de Tarlé walks intermediate Haskell developers through building a todo-list app using Haskell, GTK 4 and the Adwaita library via the haskell-gi binding toolkit. The first installment shows how to set up a basic GTK Application object and connect its activate signal, with full source code available on GitHub under Floreal Technologies.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The series could lower the barrier for Haskell developers wanting to build native GNOME-style desktop applications, an area where tooling and examples have historically been sparse. By leaning on haskell-gi and Adwaita, it suggests a path for combining Haskell's type safety with GNOME's accessibility and design standards without writing raw C bindings.
- Tutorial targets intermediate Haskell developers building a todo-list app with GTK 4 and Adwaita.
- Uses the haskell-gi toolkit to auto-generate Haskell bindings from GTK C libraries.
- Full project source is hosted on GitHub under Floreal Technologies' adwaita-todo repository.
