The Windows IDE should be renamed to Wind. Now they’d have Earth, Wind, and Fire.

So exciting. I've been looking forward to this for a while.

$199 for a personal license? The UI looks vibe-coded, it uses GTK3 design primitives that have been outdated for a half-decade by now. The FOSS GNOME Builder app has a nicer UI: https://apps.gnome.org/Builder/
If I was evaluating frameworks for shipping a native app, the UI of this IDE would give me pause...

  Builder looks pretty nice. Earth follows the same general UI design as Fire and Water. Check out what Water (for example) looks like here: https://www.remobjects.com/elements/water/
  I would personally choose the phrase 'aiming for consistency' over 'vibe coded' ;) That said, version 1. I'm sure there are areas to improve! We have supported building Linux apps for years, but this is our first major app for Linux ourselves.
  Definite common ideas. Much of our UI design has roots in macOS. Lots to learn as we work Linux. I hope we'll be able to improve the app to your liking :)
  (Disclaimer: I work at RemObjects, and have worked on Fire and Water but not on Earth.)
