  <p><link href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Gjs">Gjs</link> is a
  JavaScript binding for GNOME and can be used to interact with Gtk. <link href="http://www.gtk.org/">Gtk</link> is a toolkit for creating graphical user
  interfaces.</p> <p>Open a text editor and paste in the lines of code. The
  complete script is available in the <link xref="tour-summary">Summary</link>.</p> <p>Create an <code>object</code> using
  your <code>class</code> and call the <code>run()</code> method:</p> <example>
  <p>Call the Gjs JavaScript binding. This instructs the shell to run this script
  with Gjs.</p>

  <code><![CDATA[
#!/usr/bin/gjs
]]></code>

  <p>Import <code>lang</code> for the <code>bind</code> function and
  <code>gi.Gtk</code> for <code>Gtk</code> functions.</p>

  <code><![CDATA[
const Lang = imports.lang;
const Gtk = imports.gi.Gtk;
]]></code>
