Glade VS ShellNewHandler

• User Interface Design
  Glade allows developers to design user interfaces visually, which can accelerate the development process and ensures that design considerations are visible early on.
• Integration with GTK
  Glade is specifically designed to interface with GTK, making it a powerful tool for developing applications that target the GNOME desktop environment.
• XML UI Files
  Glade stores the UI designs in XML format, which makes it easy to share, version control, and manually edit if necessary.
• Non-programmatic Design
  Creating UI elements doesn't require coding, which benefits designers and developers who want to focus on design rather than implementation details.
• Community and Documentation
  Being a part of the GNOME ecosystem means Glade benefits from community support and extensive documentation, easing up the learning curve for new users.

Possible disadvantages

• Complexity for Large Projects
  For very large projects, managing the XML files generated by Glade can become cumbersome and error-prone without proper organization and methodology.
• Learning Curve
  While Glade simplifies UI creation, new users may face a learning curve associated with understanding how Glade files integrate with programming logic in GTK.
• Limited to GTK
  The tool is specifically tied to GTK, which limits its usefulness for projects targeting alternative UI toolkits or cross-platform applications.
• Dependency on Libraries
  To use Glade, developers must rely on the GTK libraries it supports, which can be limiting if certain required widgets or features are not available.
• Performance Overheads
  Sometimes, using Glade generated UIs might introduce performance issues, particularly if not optimized well or for complex UI structures.

• No code tools with rust. Are there any no code tools for developing rust applications? I hate hardcoding applications from scratch but want to be able to get into specific details.

  The Glade website says that, as of August 2022, it's not being developed anymore and I remember reading an article somewhere (Phoronix?) saying that the GTK devs consider it deprecated and want you hand-writing GTKBuilder XML instead. I... Source: over 3 years ago

• What would you suggest to practice JS/Python in combination with GNOME apps

  So, what's the best way to tackle the challenge: writing GNOME extensions + bind them to GNOME app, or GJS, or Glade, or something else? I thought about working directly with the specific tool's source code but then I realise it'll be... Source: almost 4 years ago

• I recently got libreoffice, but now the new option in right click looks like a mess. Can someone help me get rid of them please?

  Use Shell New Handler. Run the portable app and simply untick the items you don't want to appear in your new context menu. Source: about 4 years ago

• This menu should be easy to add/remove programs to... Who is really creating Access Databases from this menu often enough to keep it here? (Not me!) Is there an easy way to edit this?

  I've always used ShellNewHandler for this. It's a really simple portable utility that allows you to remove most of the items from that menu. Tested it out on Windows 11 and it's still compatible. Source: over 5 years ago
