[Sugar-devel] Fwd: Requesting review for Sugar-gsoc application Marbles
-- Forwarded message -- From: Puneet Girdhar puneetgirdhar.i...@gmail.com Date: Fri, Apr 10, 2009 at 10:16 PM Subject: Requesting review for Sugar-gsoc application Marbles To: Google Summer of Code @ Sugarlabs list g...@lists.sugarlabs.org Cc: Jameson Quinn jameson.qu...@gmail.com Hi all, After Jameson encouraging support, I think I should discuss my proposal Marbles with you all once again. *Marbles* Marbles aim to build a UI Designer/Creator tool for sugar . The Tool would allow users to drag and drop widgets. Edit the widgets and their properties and also to create custom widgets. The Tool can also be used to connect actions to various signals from the user via the UI and will finally generate code which can be run directly. It can be written either in Wx or Qt making it platform independent. And the generation of code can also made to work on any platform. In short, it would be a stripped down but effective version of Glade ported to sugar. *Design Approach* It's a UI builder tool for creating UI applications. Detailed discussion on this can be found at http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Marbles#Basic_Design_Principles. I have also considered to use existed UI builder for sugar . Here are my results/findings http://socghop.appspot.com/document/show/user/chasedspeed/marbles. *Benefits* 1. Promote healthy brain development 2. Preparing young children for digital programming enviroment. 3. Boost child learning process and success. 4. Support for developers for future advancements ( like addition of widgets, events etc. ) Sugar Wiki-Link : http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Marbles Once again, Thank you jameson for bringing my proposal to review. I would like to request all community members to go to the sugar-wiki page and give valuable comments/ suggestions . Your feedback will help me to remain positive.

Hi Jonas, I agree, It should be extended to GTK too, since it's a live face for sugar or we can use QT+GTK support to make it real platform independent rich functionality with QT widget styles on GTK ( just idea ) . For GSOC proposal, you can find a small discussion of GTK support for Marbles in my proposal here http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Marbles#Basic_Design_Principles. Thank you for your support, Puneet.

It would help if, in addition to Qr and Wx, your tool could be made to generate GTK code, as that is the framework currently used for most of Sugar (and, I believe, the only generic framework currently used: those not using that framework use something non-generic).

Problem got solved by adding [[Category:2009_GSoC_applications]] to my page. Thanks to alsroot ( irc nickname ) for helping me out..
