Description

Hi, I was considering using Lgi with Fennel for one of my future projects. However I develop apps for the eOS platform, and in the next months they'll be releasing Gtk4 (only for developers) to start working on it. So I was wondering Lgi supports (at least decently) Gtk4. It seems one of the latest commits was about not getting errors on Gtk but I don't think that means a full support of the new version of Gtk. Also, if the answer is no, Do you plan to give support to Gtk4 in the near future? Thanks
