Greetings! This question actually reminded me of a question I've had for some time, about the new Ubuntu for touch devices. Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I see lots of info about QML and javascript, but what is the upgrade path (if any) for existing GTK apps? I maintain a Python+GTK app, how can I make sure it will run properly on Ubuntu phone/tablet? Or will full applications only run when the device is plugged in to monitor and keyboard?

Thanks for the links David ! I've looked into the camera app and as it seems, it sets the theme from c++ (main.cpp) instead of loading it from javascript (Theme.loadTheme) which goes against the plain QML+Javascript methodology. I've got the teeming kind of working in the latest commit (https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-facebook-dev/ubuntu-facebook-app/trunk), but I had to resort to copy all of the original styles from the ambiance theme for it to work, then I was able to re-style the header component, as you can see in the attached image. I also tried to re-style the "new-tabs" component, but it failed the moment I add a style rule for the "new-tabs" like this: .new-tabs { headerTextColor: "#ffffff"; } this rule causes the tabs header to completely disappear, and no useful warning or error on the log. Another thing I tried was to create a new "NewTabsDelegate", and map it to a style rule, like the camera-app did for the "ThinSliderDelegate", but it seems I need to create a new qml module for the theme which I wasn't able to do. This styling of the header component and new tabs delegate would be great to allow us to further change the app look to be more compliant with the Facebook apps. One change could be, to add two icon buttons, for notifications and messages, to the top right corner of the tabs delegate. Any suggestions ?
