manjaro-hello
A tool providing access to documentation and support for new Manjaro users.
Why a new Manjaro Welcome Screen ?
Manjaro-hello is widely inspired by manjaro-welcome. Manjaro-welcome has several defects, some of which are inherited from the technologies used:
- It is based on Gtk3 but because of the use of the old Python binding of Webkit, it is blocked on gtk2.
- The old old Python binding of Webkit has many serious security holes.
- Content of the app is displayed with web technologies. This makes the soft slower and complicates its evolution.
- Can't know if each link will be open in an external browser or in app.
For all this reasons, we have chosen to build a new software from scratch but keeping the original structure.
Currently, manjaro-hello has all the major features of manjaro-welcome plus a translation system.
- Interface is translated using gettext and po files. (po/)
- Pages are translated using differents files. (data/pages)
What goals ?
The goal of the project is to build a powerful welcome screen who welcome the new user and help him to discover our favorite distribution :).
Technologies
Manjaro-hello is build with Python, Gtk3 and Glade.
TODO
- Make more translations to distribute it in all the world.
