Hi, I remember that few years ago when I used Gnome for a little project of mine, the two most difficult things I had to overcome had been: (1) the use of Autotools to build stuff (I remember I used part of the automatically generated output of the Anjuta IDE to get over this one) (2) to know which library/frameworks to use
For (2) I wished there had been a page indicating what library/framework to use for each common task with an explicit indication of what library/frameworks NOT to use, because they have been deprecated. I read the documentation problem improved A LOT in these past few years, so maybe there is already such page somewhere on the Gnome website and someone will let Pablo know about it.
