more specifically, is this the main GUI designer tool that people are using atm? i understood it was the new generation of since a while now

im happy to take another run at gnome desktop apps but i ideally like to keep the design separate from the code (also for collaborating with designers)

you can shoot the shit with other people and without having to recompile a bunch of noise

it spits out a text file andd the code loads it and then just references some conventions / names / etc. to pull it all together
