There is also quite a bit of non-de specific apps to make a complete desktop system.

  • luxurystore - gtk4 port of synaptic, with a lot of added features
  • luxedm - heavily updated for of slim ( debians version which was updated until 2024)

I have been using the system at home for weeks, squashing bugs when I find them. The last week has been bug free. Should be ready to release late this week barring anything crazy.

Everything is working great, I am installng fresh on an old chromebook I have around to make sure install is smooth.

Super happy to discuss anything or answer any questions.

Sycamore + GTK demo

I've been working on an experimental integration between Sycamore and GTK4. Sycamore is a reactive framework for building web apps with Rust + WASM. Here, Sycamore is running completely natively and driving a GTK4 app instead of a web app.

The goal is to create the easiest and most elegant way of writing GTK4 apps in Rust.

To follow along, visit the Sycamore website where you can join our Discord server!
