Hey everyone,
I'm going to have some time on my hands pretty soon and I thought
I'd try to start learning a programming language... And, I want it to
be something that will easily apply to maemo.
My first inclination was to learn Python/Gtk+, as it seems to be the
norm for most people who program for Gtk/maemo...
Although, today I started researching Ruby/Gtk. Since I have some
experience with Ruby already, as well as a large local group of
friends who are pretty apt in Ruby/RonR, I was thinking that might be
the route to go for me... But, my question is this:
Would it be as possible (i.e., as _easy_) to port a Ruby/Gtk app to
maemo as it would a Python/Gtk app?
Or, in other words, is it Python that counts or is it Gtk+?
I apologize if these are entirely ignorant questions, but as most of
you know, I'm a designer, not a coder... But, I'd like that to change.
And, I'd like some advice as to the proper route towards programming
specifically for maemo. Also, I'm thinking that my first phase of
education will be a pre-Scratchbox phase, as I am going to be
learning from (nearly) scratch (no pun intended). Or, if I'm wrong in
that area, let me know that too.
Thanks!
Tim
