IIRC ElementaryOS had the distinction of using mostly Vala/Genie for development of distro specific software. Is that still the case?

  They certainly still recommend it. Too bad the evolution & development of Vala itself has stagnated mostly.

    IMHO they missed the boat - they should have pushed Objective C and later Swift. Lots of Mac / iOS developers were curious about Elementary when it was new.

      They forked off from Gnome, and thus used Gobject/Gtk, which probably wouldn't fit so well with Objective C & its decendents…
