## Development

### Introduction

As project structure and codebase in development, this section would help with understand what is going on, before you start to read the sources.

Currently, application sources located at `src/app` folder, written by following principles:

* Every file implement (extend) one of GTK 4 Widgets, according to the functional subject (e.g. `class Browser : public Gtk::ApplicationWindow`)
* `src/app` does not contain other class types like models or libraries (another folders and namespaces at `src` root are reserved for these needs)
* Namespaces match filesystem path, where directory namespaces are lowercase
* Every file work with it own, 1th level child only, to prevent massive logic levels keeping in mind
* To access any children features, deeper or higher than 1th level of current class, use delegation methods (actions, getters and setters)
* One file - one class. If the file requires additional (GTK) component, this component should be placed at similar folder with same name as parent filename. So we have simple hierarchy navigation logic - from app to window, from window to it container, etc.
* At this moment, all constants named with uppercase, const everything that not mutable
* `#include` application `.hpp` files in `.cpp`. For system libraries, use headers only. Do not place system dependencies in `.cpp`

### Environment

``` bash
pkg-config --cflags --libs gio-2.0\
                           glibmm-2.68\
                           gtkmm-4.0\
                           pangomm-2.48\
                           sqlite3
```
