+
+Before I started using Vala (and sometimes even after that) I often
+needed to generate new classes based
+on [GObject](https://developer.gnome.org/gobject/stable/).
+
+If you have ever worked with GObject in C, you know how tedious it can
+be. You need a pretty long boilerplate just to register your class,
+and, if you want to be introspectable (and readable, actually), your
+function names can grow really long.
+
+To overcome this problem back in my ViM days, I used template files,
+where I could replace class prefixes and names with a few keyboard
+macros. As I never really dug into ViM scripting other than using some
+plugins, I never got farther than
+that. [Then came Emacs]({% post_url 2014-09-17-nyanmacs %}).
+
+I use Emacs for about two years now very extensively, up to and
+including GLib-based development. I tried the template approach, but
+it felt to be a really poor experience, especially given that I made
+my feet wet with Emacs Lisp. So I dug deeper, and created a package
+for that.

+
+GobGen has its own buffer with some widgets, a bit similar to
+`customize`. You can enter the name of your new object and its parent,
+specify some settings. Then you press Generate, and you are presented
+with two new buffers, one for the `.c` and another for the `.h`
+boilerplate.
+
+There are a lot of things to do, actually. There is already an open
+issue for creating a major mode for this buffer, and there are some
+minor switches I’d like to add, but it is already usable. You can grab
+it from [MELPA](https://melpa.org/#/gobgen) (my first package there;
+woo!) or from
+my [GitHub account](https://github.com/gergelypolonkai/gobgen.el).
