Characters now supports composite emoji such as people with skin tone and gender modifiers, or country flags. It also displays emoji in the proper order instead of sorted by their codepoints.
I’ve released a new version of Apostrophe with small bugfixes and improvements and updated translations. I’m also working on a GTK4 port, so I don’t plan on releasing more features until that is complete.
I’m releasing Geopard, a simple, colorful gemini client. Browse the space and reach hundreds of gemini capsules! It let’s you read stories, download files, play games… https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.ranfdev.Geopard
Introducing Citations, your new manager for BibTeX references, this is a (for now) very small app to manage your bibliography and get easy to copy cites for LaTeX and other formats. The app is in heavy development and Iin the next weeks I will improve the performance and add more features before its stable release.
During Linux App Summit Julian Sparber prototyped with docked GTK Inspector in Workbench. We exchanged lots of interesting ideas around developer tooling and closing the gap with Web inspectors.
Last weekend, many of us were at the Linux App Summit. It was fantastic! Thank you KDE, GNOME, organizers, volunteers, sponsors and everyone involved. Make sure to check out the talks, here are some of my favorites:
I have registered the domain drey.app to make it publicly available for app ids. If you want to use app.drey.<YourApp> please register it first.
The idea behind proving this domain is that gnome.org is reserved for core apps and using app ids derived from repository hosting can be long, short-lived, and tied to one author. The name app.drey derives from the term for a squirrel’s nest.
That’s all for this week!
See you next week, and be sure to stop by #thisweek:gnome.org with updates on your own projects!
