@tapaniraja I use Timeshift since my last data loss because it even saves the whole OS. I once accidentally deleted my root partition and Timeshift saved my ass 😂

@vancha I am also quit happy with this progress. Programming in C is not as easy as Python due to a much lower amount of examples. But the GTK documentation is really helpful and I read a lot of other open source projects.

I figured out how to make my plots dynamic! 😍 3D animations will be implemented in Picplanner soon!

@tapaniraja Lightroom was much harder to replace!
LRs user interface is SO easy and simple and the results are perfect with just a view clicks.
I tried Darktable but struggled a lot to realise my goals and it was much to slow. For professional editing it was not fast enough in my opinion.
But then I tried RawTherapee again and after 2 weeks reading the documentation I understood how to use it correctly. The results were awesome. One day later I deleted my dual boot Windows 😂

@tapaniraja Yes, most people say that but haven't tried anything else. I worked 6.5 years professionally with Adobe but I ditched Photoshop 3 Years ago and used GIMP even though people say that GIMP is so much worse. BUT there are Open Source GIMP Plugins like GMIC and Resynthesizer and these makes GIMP a killer tool!

My first picture edited with my new workflow and 100% #opensource software!
As RAW converter #rawtherapee was used and for selective editing #gimp was the programme of choice. My OS is #Linux of course 😄
I deleted Windows with all my #Adobe products three months ago... And it was a good decision! 😅

plot_circle: I have added a new function to my minimalistic 3d plotting library 😄
❗I moved my project on Gitlab to another account name❗

@vancha And furthermore I don't have to plug in the phone or have to use an emulator. I can directly test it on my normal PC. In Gnome Builder I click play and I instantly see my results :)

@vancha I was really surprised that there was no error while installing on the Librem 5 image 😂
My first time I installed my app from source on a different OS than usual and then it worked immediately without any bugs 😅 This is so much more fun than programming for Android! 😅

First test on the #librem5 qemu image was successful. My first Linux app fits well :)
I also started to write a plot library based on Cairo to realise a virtual representation of the 3D data.

@KekunPlazas Thanks a lot! This is really helpful!

@vancha Thanks a lot! I will give an update in a view weeks and if I am stuck anywhere completely I will definitely ask 😅

@vancha I hope my new post can answer your questions 😅

I am now on #Gitlab with my #gnome #gtk application designed for the #librem5 (with #libhandy).
The Idea is to give photographers the possibility to calculate the position of the sun, moon and milky way to plan the perfect spot to take a picture.

I am not a programmer so please tell me if you would do something differently.
AND if you know how to make a 3D plot of a coordinate system in C (similar to matplotlib in python) please tell me! 😅

@vancha Yes I am still working on this every free minute I have 😅 But I am not a programmer, never coded in C before and never made an app for Linux before so it takes me quite long to realise the graphical part of the programme 😅 But I love C so much more than Java on Android! 😄

@vancha At least you haven't lost your humour while waiting 😂 I am waiting for Fir......... 😭
