## What it is
A curated awesome-list of native open-source GTK 3 and GTK 4 applications, organized by category such as audio, video, graphics, internet, and office. It serves as a discovery index for finding quality GTK-based desktop software.

## Use cases
- find open-source GTK apps for Linux
- discover native GNOME applications
- look for a GTK4 music player or video editor
- find GTK-based alternatives to proprietary desktop software
- browse curated Linux desktop apps by category

## When to choose
- you want to discover native GTK 3/4 desktop applications
- you're building or researching the GNOME/GTK app ecosystem
- you need a categorized index of open-source Linux apps

## When to avoid
- you need GTK development libraries or tutorials rather than an app list
- you're looking for Qt, Electron, or non-GTK applications
- you need a single application rather than a directory of many
