Last month I was fortunate enough to be able to attend GUADEC 2022 in Guadalajara, Mexico, and overall it was a worthwhile experience where I learned a lot. Also it was the 25th anniversary of the GNOME project (give or take a month) and where better to celebrate than in the country where it all began?

My main contribution this year was to give a talk, “Integrating Progressive Web Apps in GNOME”, the recording of which you can find here. The attendance of it and engagement with it was pretty good so hopefully folks found it useful. Now with GNOME 43 around the corner, the revamped web app support should be coming to a distribution near you soon so you can see for yourself in case you haven’t been adventurous enough to try it out in GNOME OS Nightly!

A few days later into the conference and kind of at the last minute (just the day before) I organized a Flatpak/Portals BoF that took place on Saturday. It was hybrid both online and in-person and pretty well-attended in both mediums. As with past such meetings, there’s always much more to discuss than there’s time for, and perhaps that means we should do more of them. But in any case there were some productive discussions on camera portals and some triaging of open issues and pull requests of Flatpak, which is imminently due for a 1.14.0 release.
