Gtk4 Applications Example

Misc classes to build Gtk4 Applications in Gjs and Typescript

It takes the hassle away from building Gtk4 application in Gjs So you can create a cool application, without all the boilerplate code

• main.ts is a sample application
• widgets/*.js contains classes to make it easy to create your UI

Requirements (Fedora 36)

• gtk4
• gjs 1.72.0 (or later)
• node 16 (can be installed via nvm)

sudo dnf install gtk4-devel polkit-devel

npm install

Will properly work fine in other distros, but I have only tested in Fedora 36

Build types

The types in the @types directory were created with ts-for-gir. If you want to create the types yourself install ts-for-gir and run the following command:

npm run build:types

Build Typescript

npm run build:app

Start

npm run start

# or alternatively
gjs -m dist/main.js
