Anjuta (in the
anjuta package) and GNOME Builder (in the
gnome-builder package) are Integrated Development Environments (
IDE) optimized for creating GTK+ applications for GNOME. Glade (in the
glade package) is an application designed to create GTK+ graphical interfaces for GNOME and save them in an XML file. These XML files can then be loaded by the GTK+ shared library through its
GtkBuilder
component to recreate the saved interfaces; such a feature can be interesting, for instance for plugins that require dialogs.
