Steven,

You may want to look at my tutorial, which is based on Pierre's tutorial and a few other tutorials: https://gnustep.github.io/Guides/App/index.html. Although the rest of that website is still under construction, the tutorial is pretty much complete. Note that many of the tutorials don't use ProjectCenter. ProjectCenter is not really necessary as you can use a better code editor and use clangd for syntax highlighting, warnings, jump-to-definition and similar functionality (which ProjectCenter never provided) and it's easy enough to write a GNUmakefile yourself. But of course you can also easily use ProjectCenter if you want to.

Thanks,

Ethan

Hey folks,

Long time, Cocoa-familiar who is taking a look at Free options.

I installed window maker live which is Debian + GNUstep in a live image. It’s 
very nice.

Following https://www.gnustep.org/experience/PierresDevTutorial/index.html

Create new project
Name it
Edit interface file ==> No interfaces directory shown

Hrm.

The screenshot shows sub directories called classes, headers, other sources, 
interfaces, images, other resources, projects, documentation.

But I only have sub projects, supporting files, non-project files.
What project type did you create? Sounds like you created the default 
"Aggregate".
Create a new one of type "Application", and try again.

So yeah, fresh out the gate I’m blocked.

I can confirm that I can copy/paste a simple hello.m for a successful modal 
popup. So the toolchain here at least.

I tried following multiple getting started paths but many are dead links eg 
Developer_Guides in the wiki links to “GNUStep base programming manual” - 
probably pretty informative - and it 404s.

Am I missing more recent resources? Or any recently validated paths?

I’m hoping to explore this platform more!

Steven
