SnowflakeOS - Creating a GUI focused NixOS-based distro
I don't plan on it at this moment, however, if someone finishes the packagekit backend for Nix, the appstream data I'm working on collecting would work to display icons and screenshots. Also if someone who knew qt/kirigami development wanted to make something similar to nix-software-center, the backend tool that reads and modifies configuration values is a separate project: nix-editor, and I would be willing to help with any issues that arose from that.

Gtk4 Tutorial
"Automatically figuring out which parent objects the class you're subclassing derives from"
AFAIK this is a language limitation, there is no way in a Rust macro to take a type and get all the traits that are implemented for that type.
"Helpers for properties and signals"
There is an open issue for this: https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk-rs-core/issues/27
"A flat list of methods, instead of the public/imp split"
You can already do this in your code and use "pub fn" and "fn" like normal.
"I feel like I had a difficult time figuring out how to share state between widgets. You end up with lots of OnceCell, Rc, and RefCell, and it quickly becomes confusing,"
I think you are supposed to use bind_property and the gtk::Expression objects to do data binding, though that part is not so convenient to use from C or Rust either.

How to (properly) use subclassing in gtk4-rs?
Ideally this should be automated with a nice derive macro, see https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk-rs-core/issues/27 . How that could look exactly is still up to discussion and not so easy while keeping it flexible. That derive macro would then likely also work with the id: usize parameter to the property setter/getter instead of the string name.
