Hello, could you please add a list of examples of practical use of your library? Small pimers are good, but I would like to see how the library is used in everyday development.

I would be happy to include it, but unfortunately, I haven't found any large-scale projects using cl-gtk4 at the moment. I have been using it to learn the GTK API and develop rapid prototypes and interface designs.

If you are looking for projects using GTK4, plenty of them are available in various programming languages that can serve as references. Their usage should be similar to cl-gtk4.

I am rather busy now. But, I made some progress with using the library and finding my way around the GTK documentation. But I think I should be able to find some time to help or offer advice.

What would be the simple, practical example you want? I would write a simple, extensible text editor if I had time. Gtk is not the biggest problem. Finding a model for my app is the challenge I am working on slowly these days. Gtk is a solved problem from my point of view. Please feel free to ask me as well.

I have idea fore you: html editor with built-in browser. On left side you have a text buffer. On right side the browser is. You can add the tags from top-menu.

Probably, I'll write it myself. I suggest you make your variant and we'll compare our code.

I would be happy to, but I'm sorry I've been busy lately and don't have much time to complete it. Feel free to try writing a PR to contribute to the examples, and then I can do code reviews for you.

Don't worry, my suggestion was addressed to @bigos . Bigos (can I use this nick?), what you can talk?
