Get started
Gjs and Gtk Actions and signals Run your application
const Lang = imports.lang;const Gtk = imports.gi.Gtk;
const App = new Lang.Class({ Name: 'App', Extends: Gtk.Application, _init: function () { this.parent({ application_id: 'org.example.App' }); this.connect('activate', Lang.bind(this, this._onActivate)); this.connect('startup', Lang.bind(this, this._onStartup)); },
_onActivate: function () { this._window.show_all(); }, _onStartup: function () { this._window = new Gtk.ApplicationWindow({ application: this, title: "Hello World!" });
this._window.set_default_size(200, 200); let label = new Gtk.Label({ label: "Hello World" }); this._window.add(label); }});
Run your application
let app = new App();app.run(ARGV);
$ gjs helloWorld.js
