Read more Upgrading GTK based Python applications A hot topic in the GNOME world is upgrading applications from GTK+ 3 to GTK 4 and libadwaita. For Gaphor, we completed this task around a year ago, but I never took time to write how we did it. Read more Building Python extensions with Meson and PDM In this post I’ll outline a workflow for developing native extensions for Python. The build tool of choice is Meson, and we’ll use PDM to ensure a frictionless developer experience. For a long time, C extensions for Python can be built with setuptools. Although this works fine for simple extension, it gets tedious if your extension needs to link to other libraries. In those cases it’s often necessary to write custom code in setup.py to find and link to those libraries.
