A friendly reminder for those new to writing GNOME Extensions:

If you find something missing or wrong in the documentation, please ask and/or report it. Posting on reddit that the documentation is garbage, with no details, really doesn't help you or anyone else.

Because yes, I use GTK V3 in #gjs to output this information. It's the only viable way. But Gtk V4 has removed the access to the context. That's crazy.

Very excited to release the first version of Workbench - A sandbox to learn and prototype with #GNOME technologies.

currently thinking of developing an app in #gjs and #purescript

If you have an object method in #gjs which attempts to call itself via a timeout, thus:

_foo() { GLib.add_timeout(p, q, this._foo.bind(this)); }

it will fail after a few tens of thousands of iterations, saying only "Aborted", because the bind()s aren't GCd. Should they be?
