Hi,

> Or you can use a tool like GNOME's jhbuild, which sets up a
development environment the old way, by changing the environment

For what it's worth, Meson also comes with a built-in 'devenv'
functionality these days, so if you build your app with meson and use
the meson cairo subproject it should be possible to set up such a dev
environment for you so that you can test/develop without installing
things.

Might require us to add something to cairo though (meson.add_devenv()).

Cheers
 Tim
