I think that glademm is good to give beginners a working widget and 
program structure to play with fast [usually within a few minutes]. *)

It does not teach them
- which widgets to use where and when
- how to do anything sensible with the widgets (modifying them, which 
signals to connect)

But that is simply not it's scope.

onto that path.
