That way it is formalized into the Builder plans as well.
What do you think about the idea described here: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/foundation-list/2014-September/msg00064.html Having the tutorials written in the glib git repository has the advantage that it'll hopefully be updated when something becomes outdated. However for a printed book, copying the tutorials and gluing them together may not have a good result. If the path to follow is GLib -> GObject -> GIO -> GTK+ [1], when reading the GObject introduction, there should be a reference to the GLib introduction. And in the GLib conclusion, a reference to the GObject introduction. Also, the GTK-Doc documentation is written with links to symbols in mind. For a printed book, there are references to sections/pages. [1] Maybe having GTK+ at the end is not great. So having a short introduction to GTK+ to be able to display a window with a label and a button could be added in an earlier chapter.
