Merry Christmas, bsd.cafe! 🎄

I’m looking for some brutal honesty to help shape the future of Parch Linux.

Beyond the hype and the "shiny new things," what actually makes a distro livable day after day? I’m looking for solid, battle-tested opinions on what constitutes a good system when the novelty wears off.

If you could architect the "perfect" daily driver based purely on reliability and workflow, what acts as the foundation?

I was working on the new BashCore build when the process suddenly failed because the Metasploit returned a “file has unexpected size” error... 😳😩🤔

Seems like a temporary during , hopefully nothing serious. Rebuilding now to see if it’s fixed.

Regarding the testing API. There is still room for improvement, but Qt Test already takes care of most of the work. It's kind of amazing to be able to do UI tests on Linux 😊

🎥 I also created a demo app where various components can be showcased as I'm making my way through all the widgets. I opted to tackle QtWidgets before QtQuick in order to refine to overall API.

🔬 If you're familiar with Apple's UI testing frameworks (AXUI), you know how useful this can be when developing apps with a UI. I spent some time wrapping Qt Test so it can be used to simulate events and drive an application programatically. This is helpful not only for humans who want to test their apps, but it is a very efficient way for agents like Claude Code to be able to inspect results of their changes directly.

📦 I've been able to bridge most QtWidget APIs without manual "C" bindings thanks to the advanced C++ interop being introduced with Swift 6.2. For this, I created a C++ target to act as a bridge - re-exporting the Qt6 bindings and creating a layer of abstraction where things like lifecycle can be addressed. I've also settled on an approach for exposing events and event filters in a way that will not require a macros or other code generation steps.

I just wanted to share my progress wrapping Qt6 as a safe Swift library. The main changes since the last update:

📖 I named it! The package is now called QwiftUI. The goal is unchanged - offer an intuitive (and safe) Swift API for building cross-platform apps with Qt6. The feel I'm going for is "AppKit but Qt" while making all of Qt's awesomeness available to Swift apps.

I wanted to get a sence of what it means to use another UI framework in Swift for Linux and Windows. So I picked Qt6 and... hello world 😍! Swift's C++ interop is brilliant, the entire wrapper can be a target in the same Swift Package as the app itself!

Trying to understand how to fully leverage GNOME Workbench for GTK app development on Linux. Docs and examples seem sparse. How do you use Workbench effectively in your workflow? Any tips or best practices?

We need more devs to contribute to Linux accessibility.

Linux Is Perfect Unless You're Blind - by @BrodieOnLinux on #YouTube

Everyone knows that accessibility is really important but at the same time it's one of those problems that nobody has enough time to actually go and work on

First LXDE broke me. Now XFCE is taking its turn. BashCore-X is already falling apart… The failures just keep coming!
