Announcing the first release of The Widget Laboratory, a Gtk theme viewer/editor. While the TWL looks like The Widget Factory, they have different purposes.

UPDATE: The Widget Laboratory 0.1 is out! Read more…

The Widget Labratory is a gtk theme viewer similar to The Widget Factory, with several useful features.

Look familiar?

It can load any Gtk Builder formatted .glade file instead of the classic twf one.

TWL monitors gtk theme files and updates when there are changes. So you can use it to help design gtk themes.

Open the theme folder in the default file manager.

Download the source and run it:

bzr branch lp:twl
cd twl
./bin/twl
