I've been putting it off long enough. I'm finally playing around with Vala and Gtk in hopes of developing an application for elementary OS / Linux some day.
The sources of my learning so far have been sparked off by these videos:
- Create an ElementaryOS app with GTK & Vala! (ElementaryOS Apps Pt 1)
- Learning about GTK apps with Vala (ElementaryOS Apps Pt 2)
- Vala Tutorial Part 1 - Simple Basic Window App
- Vala Tutorial Part 2 - Gtk Buttons
- Vala Tutorial Part 3 - Brief intro to Gtk.Box Layout Container
And these resources:
- https://valadoc.org/
- https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/
- https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Vala/Documentation
It creates a window with a header and a button. When you click the button, the label changes. Click it again and it changes back. Standard setter/getter stuff.
