blueprint_compiler
Description
A markup language for GTK user interface files.
Motivation: GtkBuilder XML format is quite verbose, and many app developers don't like using WYSIWYG editors for creating UIs. Blueprint files are intended to be a concise, easy-to-read format that makes it easier to create and edit GTK UIs. Internally, it compiles to GtkBuilder XML as part of an app's build system. It adds no new features, just makes the features that exist more accessible. Another goal is to have excellent developer tooling--including a language server--so that less knowledge of the format is required. Hopefully this will increase adoption of cool advanced features like GtkExpression.
Install
Channel stable v0.22.2-1
This app is curated in HaikuPorts. Install it from there, it is already available in HaikuDepot.
pkgman install blueprint_compiler
Careful: the file comes from HaikuPorts' own server, but installing it by hand is not the way in. It is pkgman that resolves the dependencies an .hpkg does not carry with it, and a package installed on its own may simply not run. Use the pkgman command above, unless you know exactly why you want the file.
