Desktop apps, especially the Linux-kind, feel very retro. You know you're appealing/building apps for a very niche subset of humanity, but that someone on the internet, somewhere, will say:
Wow! I can't believe there is a Linux desktop app for this! I just installed Linux and cannot believe how simple it is or how many options I have
Desktop apps are dead, long live the desktop app!
- wallacoloo 11y agoI just can't figure this one out. > I just looked at the TkDocs, and wow! it is reasonably sane and one should be able to immediately understand the code in their language of choice. This statement seems serious, and reasonable enough. On the one hand, the pencil-drawn UI schematics are completely out of place and not very helpful. On the other hand, the Tk examples are given in 4 languages, and do seem pretty reasonable. But everything else in your post seems sarcastic. And then finally, > Desktop apps are dead, long live the desktop app! I'm hopelessly lost. I feel like I'm back in English class doing one of those convoluted assignments wherein I'm told to analyse the author's intent, symbolism, and the meaning behind their motifs, etc. Those assignments always kicked my ass.
- Narishma 11y agoWhile it may be well explained, the example given is pretty bad as far as user interfaces go. It shouldn't have a 'Calculate' button, and instead just update as you type. That way there can't be any discrepancy between the two units at any time.
