I’ll second this. Gtk is complex, with three layers (gtk, gdk, g). Then there

What’s needed is a full blooded example. Start from main and show a pure gtk+3
app that takes button press, mouse moves, text entry and keystrokes, and uses
them to update labels with different markup options. Throw in a clock display
to show timers. Use multiple threads to show how to add idle functions. Use
css.

This sounds like a book rather than an example.

There's nothing wrong with a book, I'm just not sure anyone is going
to write one in a response to a mailing thread.
