Day: HIG updates

At his blog, Allan Day announcesthe first major update to the GNOME Human InterfaceGuidelines since the first GNOME 3 version (released in2014). Day notes that the GNOME 3 HIG is structured arounddesign patterns, in the hopes that it can be updated regularly toreflect current practices. "These new guidelines are the directresult of design work that has happened in the past year. They attemptto distill everything we've learned through our own process of trialand error." Furthermore, "the HIG now links to therelevant GTK+ API reference documentation for each designcomponent. This is nice for knowing which widget does what; and makesthe design guidelines a more effective accompaniment to thetoolkit."
