  • Project Oberon

    The Oberon channel has several videos of Oberon in action,

    https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=The+Oberon+Chan...

    While Oberon was quite cool, people should also learn about its Xerox influence,

    "Eric Bier Demonstrates Cedar"

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_dt7NG38V4

    Also dive into what happened afterwards, Oberon-2, Active Oberon, Zonnon,...

    Active Oberon could be considered quite modern, also makes the distinction between safe and unsafe pointers, which improves the experience for low level coding.

    One of the best things about these systems is proving what systems programming with automatic memory management were capable of.

    Given Oberon-2's influence on Go, maybe improving Fyne (https://fyne.io/fynedesk/) with something like gRPC for the dynamic experience, could be a possible sucessor.

  • Why Go over Python?
    7 projects | /r/devops | 26 Aug 2021
    The thing is with go is it's kind of made for web applications. It's made by google for google. Taking a look at the standard library you can see the most fleshed out parts are for general system access, networking and particularly http, and crypto. People have obviously made things outside of those scopes like fynedesk, but that's where the focus of golang is.
  • Is there is good GUI for Golang ?
    18 projects | /r/golang | 12 Aug 2021
    Another angle for when a toolkit is mature could be when it’s used for a full desktop environment :). MacOS and Windows native toolkits obviously tick the box. GTK+ has Gnome, Qt powers KDE (both have Go bindings), Enlightenment is powered by EFL (no Go support yet). Fyne is being used for FyneDesk https://github.com/fyne-io/fynedesk
  • As a longtime BSD user, I have my doubts about our future.
    2 projects | /r/BSD | 1 May 2021
    One other idea that I had: There are new approaches to the desktop like e.g. FyneDesk, a *nix desktop environment written in Golang (using its own GUI toolkit). It's BSD-licensed (3-clause) and I would expect the team being more than happy with anybody trying to make it available to a wider audience. Might be worth a thought.
  • Pure Go desktop for Linux/BSD, FyneDesk reaches v0.2

    100% agree on the theming, quick glance at the current implementation seems to indicate hardcoded values (I am assuming this is an early spec) https://github.com/fyne-io/fynedesk/blob/master/theme/theme.go
