Introduction

ginext is a documentation-first attempt at a more approachable Python surface for GObject Introspection, GTK, and GNOME development.

This section should orient new readers, but the detailed topic backlog from the old introduction has been moved into Guides. That keeps the docs landing page short while giving the major API areas room to grow.

If you want the motivation for the project surface itself, start with Why a new API?.

For runtime costs, profiling, and optimization work, readers should start with Performance.

What belongs in Docs

  • conceptual orientation
  • installation and first-use material
  • worked guides
  • advanced topics
  • migration and upgrade notes

What belongs elsewhere

  • generated namespace, type, and member reference belongs in API
  • screenshots, real apps, and visual examples belong in Gallery
