GNOME and KDE: Mingle and KDE Itinerary

Jose Hunter: Let's talk about Mingle
I have spent the past few weeks working on a small personal project, because I do not know when to stop. I think Mingle is mostly feature complete at this point. It lets you play with Google's Emoji Kitchen, which is available on Android's GBoard, on GNOME. It provides a convenient way to find the perfect expression and paste it into any conversation online. It is a GTK4/Libadwaita application written in Vala/Blueprint. I have such a weird fascination with Vala. I have a Java/C# background so the syntax is quite familiar. Blueprint is the future and way more readable then XML.

A lot has happened since the last update on KDE Itinerary, with the transition to Qt 6 finally completed, public transport coverage extended to more countries, a new journey map view and many more fixes and improvements.
