Deprecate 'afterCreate' #13

Closed owickstrom closed 4 years ago

It was basically a hack, when custom widgets would be the right solution.

Maybe we should adopt CustomWidget from Komposition. It makes it much easier to build a custom widget, without having to do a lot of Typeable stuff:

https://github.com/owickstrom/komposition/blob/83bc84f353ca353f73f543e4496f6854fd864447/src/Komposition/UserInterface/GtkInterface/RangeSlider.hs#L29-L54

I think it could be made even easier by not requiring the internal custom state to be pattern matched on when using it in your custom widget.

Going to remove this entirely in next release.
