GCompris Development

[Emmanuel Charruau]

Hi Yogendra,

About the qml resources, like I told you, everything is written by
hand. GCompris is a wonderful place to learn qml. You could pick up
any of the activities and start changing some qml parameters to see
what it changes.
Then you could create a new test activity and simply try to follow
basic tutorials from qt. https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qml-tutorial1.html.

Extending explore farms is not that rich to learn something new.
Furthumor we will certainly encouters licence problems with sound
files. To finish with Timothée (GCompris graphic artist) would have to
do take lots of time for new drawing.

Regards,

Emmanuel

However I still want to work on it, here's the link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zX-kIv_7Zslb9c4e-Y2lmjTTqGCbafg9HywpOeRYPU0/edit?usp=sharing. The activity is basically about identifying sounds for the given image.
