Crystal and GTK4 and GNOME and Linux?

1

hi,

I am a programming enthusiast only. I love Python.

I also love Linux and FOSS and GTK seems to be the thing., GTK4.
And most of my websearches produces pages from:
https://ultimate-gtk4-crystal-guide.geopjr.dev/en/

Then I realized I was curious about Crystal language…
I read just the intro and I’m absolutely excited: beautiful!

So, question…
Is Crystal a viable option if you want to make an app for Gnome?
If not, why is it so? What’s missing?

How come Crystal isn’t listed here? Will it be?

There’s a few nice looking Crystal GTK apps:

So I should think so.

Well, the GTK bindings are still in only in version 0.18, you’ll have to ask @hugopl for the plan.
