Port C examples about gtk4-rs HOT 7 CLOSED

Hi! I have interest in working on this task, but I have a couple of questions. Is there interest in porting the application* examples? Also, examples such as basics are called hello-world on the C repo, should I rename them to make them more similar to the C examples?

I am excited to get to work on this, thanks!

I can do this, the upstream C gtk examples are fairly simple.

Some are formatted like a guide, (application1 through application9), and I will place these in their own directory, each file is a separate bin. I will also add the upstream README files from each directory and add screenshots like the other gtk4-rs examples.

I don't have much time to do this, so it may take around a week and a half to complete.

Excited to get to work, thanks :)

@grantshandy Thanks for having a look at this! I would rather port one example after another to simplify the review process for us and we can get them merged much sooner.

Perfect! let me know if I can help somehow :)

I think we are doing quiet good in terms of examples nowadays, more are always welcome though. But the main purpose of this issue is no longer that relevant so closing it.

Sure that sounds great, I'll have each one as a separate pull request.

@mairacanal great that you want to look into this.

IMO there is no need to change existing names to be closer to the GTK ones

Is there interest in porting the application* examples?

Any example that is concise and isn't already covered by existing examples would be good to port.
