My first blogging year (or actually half year since I started in the second half of 2012): I'm writing about the Linux distribution experiment that I had in mind and evaluate available software to find good light-weight components to pick for the distro.
This post deals with 7 Linux toolkits: Qt4, GTK+3, GTK+2, OpenMotif, GNUstep, FOX and FLTK, comparing their weight

This post is about a graphical distribution of an unexpected operating system (can you guess which?) thanks to ports of Nano-X and FLTK!
Toolkits - a very high-level introduction
This post discusses some very basic background you should have if you're completely new to toolkits and not very familiar with how operating systems work
