I am a huge fan of GNOME and it's received lots of polish over recent releases.
The one app I'd really love to see is a documentation browser like Dash.
I plan on having a go at writing it when my current contract comes to an end and I've a bit more time.
- adhesive_wombat 5y agoIt's not GNOME, but there is Zeal. I suspect GNOME would rather expect everyone else to adopt devhelp formats[1]. [1]: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/devhelp/-/issues/1 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/devhelp/-/issues/1
- petepete 5y agoYeah - I've used Zeal a bit and like it. I spent a bit of time looking at the devhelp2 format and they look quite straightforward, maybe writing a converter utility is the way to go.
- sph 5y agoYeah, I'm exploring writing a Dash-clone for Linux as well. The killer feature only Dash has is being able to import the documentation for any package one might use in JS, Elixir, go, etc. I can't live without that.
- vinibrito 5y agoMe too, there is a gnome app I would love to build, but I earn my living by contracts too and cannot set apart time for my own projects.
