Snaps are confined, standalone Linux applications bundled with all the necessary dependencies to run independently. They are designed to simplify development and deployment of software, and make it easier for users to discover applications. Sounds like an enticing idea ... but where do you start?
This presentation unveils the boffinry of the snap ecosystem. It introduces and highlights the...
Creating winning proposal responses, contest entries and grant requests can be as straightforward as 1 - 2- 3. Based on real life examples from the 2020 GNOME Community Engagement Challenge, this presentation will offer some helpful hints to creating winning entries and garnering support for your next project.
The ever growing popularity of ARM devices has meant a new market for Linux apps. However, unlike conventional platforms where we enjoy the stability of a well tested graphics stack, platforms based on the ARM architecture tend to be quirkier.
In this talk, I'll be talking about the basics of how the Linux Graphics stack works touching on how technologies such as DRM, DRI, and Mesa interact...
GNU Health is social project that uses Libre technology to improve the health care system around the world.
In this talk, I'll be talking about the GNU Health Federation ecosystem and MyGNUHealth, the mobile and desktop application. We will talk about the technical components (KDE, Qt, Kirigami, Python... ) and how we can deploy MyGNUHealth in every desktop computer, as well as in...
I will present some general UI/UX tips & tricks that will help you design better. Everyone should know the basic principles and patterns of design, and once you understand them you will naturally integrate them in your work.
UI/UX is a craft. The more you practice it, the better you are at it. Some people argue that you need to have 'good taste' in order to be a designer, to be the 'artsy...
PipeWire has been making a lot of progress lately on providing a drop-in replacement audio server that unifies the PulseAudio and JACK APIs. Recently, it was announced that it is ready for general testing and at this rate it should be ready to be distributed as a replacement of PulseAudio in 2021.
Looking in the future, though, we need to ask ourselves... how can PipeWire improve the user...
GTK 4 is a major new version of GTK, that is scheduled to be released before
the end of this year. It contains many improvements that will make it easier
to develop polished applications with modern features.
This talk will present an overview of the major changes and new features,
with a focus on what matters for application developers, whether you are
writing a new application or...
In this presentation I would like to discuss a little bit about what Wayland means to application developers.
How does it compare to X11? What do I need to support it? What new challenges and opportunities does it put on the table? Let's see if we can shed light on it and move on together.
Modern mainframes feature state of the art hardware and software, including Linux, which is now the fastest growing operating system for the platform. Many organizations that are now taking their first steps into Linux, or moving workloads back to the mainframe, to take advantage of the security enhancements and software now available for Linux.
In this talk, I'll cover what is involved in...
Learn how to easily pack almost any kind of application using appimage-builder. This tool uses a new way of producing the AppImage bundle that doesn't have the restrictions of requiring the oldest active GNU/Linux release as build system or having to patch fixed paths inside dependencies binaries with obscure sed commands.

On OSS Funding
It's well known: OSS is underfunded. That has a lot of implications in several levels, which I won't discuss here. Just for the sake of completeness, I'm gonna point a few of them:
- OSS maintainers need to eat. Since OSS doesn't usually let people make a living out of it, they end with other day jobs. That means OSS projects are always at risk of becoming unmaintained,...
High quality localisation is essential to great user experience for most people in the world, yet the process of translating applications in the Linux / FOSS ecosystem is often more difficult than it needs to be. The problems faced by translators may not be obvious to software developers, though. In this talk I try to give advice to developers and communities who would like to have their...

This is a short non-technical introduction to flatpak. It will talk about what Flatpak is and what problems it tries to solve. The focus is on application developers that want to distribute their application (rather than end users).
Flathub is a build and distribution service for Linux desktop applications. Between 2017 and 2020, it went from 0 to over 900 apps working on all major distributions. Handling hundreds of builds a week, it delivers terabytes of data to its users every month. In this talk, we'll review what makes Flathub fly, the current status, and what the future may bring.
