Messagepack VS Glade

I also read that Salt was using MessagePack to format their messages. MessagePack is a format like JSON, but more compact. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

So appreciate such a detailed reply, thanks. btw, why did you choose tinylib/msgp from 4 available go-impls? Source: about 1 year ago

If you find you're running the serial connection at maximum speed and it's still not fast enough, try switching to a more compact binary encoding that has both Serde and Arduino implementations, like MsgPack... Though I don't remember enough about its format off the top of my head to tell you the easiest way to put an unambiguous header on each packet/message to make the protocol self-synchronizing.

The information can be stored in a database or as files, serialized in a standard format and with a schema agreed with your Data Engineering team. Depending on your information and requirements, it can be as simple as CSV, XML or JSON, or Big Data formats such as Parquet, Avro, ORC, Arrow, or message serialization formats like Protocol Buffers, FlatBuffers, MessagePack, Thrift, or Cap'n Proto. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

MessagePack Similar to JSONs, just more compact, although not as much as the ones above. Still, it's usefull to retain some readability in your messages. Source: over 1 year ago

Basically title, I see that https://glade.gnome.org/ from apt info glade points to an empty website. Source: about 1 year ago

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 remember hearing several months ago that the GTK devs were deprecating Glade in favour of expecting people to hand-write GTKBuilder XML. Source: about 1 year ago

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 just a waste of my time decoding the code written by somebody else for the sake of adding a few hundred lines of code that would still make just a miserable part of the original...

Can't argue with that, but to me it seems that things have substantially deteriorated since desktop GUIs fell out of fashion. Maybe that tells you more about my age than about the state of the art, but in the 90's one could "learn" GUI programming in about 30min in a RAD tool by throwing controls in containers and implementing callback functions in "direct style" for the event (Qt , swing, Java/ScalaFX, Gtk,...

I'm also learning Pyhton with GTK. I don't know if you already use GTK4 or if you decided to stick with GTK3 to be able to generate the xml file with Glade (drag and drop) because GTK4 isn't supported by Glade. That being said for GTK4 and python I found a very nice guide right here. Source: almost 2 years ago
