Programming Lang: Python
Description : Markup language for GTK user interface files
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.
