Prerequisite

Tutorial document

This tutorial is about gtk4 libraries. It is originally used on Linux with C compiler, but now it is used more widely, on windows and macOS, with Vala, python and so on. However, this tutorial describes only C programs on Linux.

If you want to try the examples in the tutorial, you need:

  • PC with Linux distribution like Ubuntu, Debian and so on.

  • Gcc

  • Gtk4. Gtk included Linux distributions is version three at present. You need to install gtk4 to your computer. Refer to gtk4 gitlab repository. However, it might make some trouble like, for example, your pc doesn't recognize usb port if you install them to /usr/local. Therefore, I strongly recommend you not to install gtk4 to /usr/local on the computer you usually use. Instead,

  • Install it to another computer only used to try gtk4.

  • Install it to your home directory, for example $HOME/local, in order to separate gtk4 from your system.

The second choice will be explained in Section 3.

Software

This repository includes ruby programs. They are used to generate markdown files, html files, latex files and a pdf file.

You need:

  • Linux distribution like Ubuntu.
  • Ruby programming language. There are two ways to install it. One is install the distribution's package. The other is using rbenv and ruby-build. If you want to use the latest version of ruby, use rbenv.
  • Rake. It is a gem, which is a library written in ruby. You can install it as a package of your distribution or use gem command.
