title: Can we write apps for Ubuntu with Vala and Glade Interface Designer?
body: <p>How can we create apps for Ubuntu in Vala? I had a look on the Ubuntu website and all I can see so far is QML and HTML5 and Javascript (and <em>some</em> mention of C++ :-).</p>
  
  <p>Now while these options are great for me, I would still prefer to write <em>this</em> project in Vala for now before jumping into something completely new again.</p>
  
  <p>I come from Windows. I tried Elementary OS but had to stop using it due to its instability (when booting), and so far Ubuntu has been perfect. I used to write apps in Vala and GTK (with Glade). Can we write apps that way for Ubuntu? (I realise that Elementary OS is based on Ubuntu).</p>
  
  <p>I wouldn't normally ask a question like this on here but I have not found a single result online suggesting that we can write Vala apps in and for Ubuntu and from what I can see right now, there is no mention of Vala on the Ubuntu website either.</p>
