    <desc>Creating a small "Hello, World" application using GTK+.</desc>

  <title>Hello world</title>

  <note>
    <p>For a detailed walk-through of creating a GTK+ dialog in C, see
    <link href="https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/gtk-getting-started.html">Getting Started with GTK+</link></p>
  </note>

  <p>Writing a hello world GTK+ dialog in C can be done as seen in the code sample below:</p>
  <code mime="text/x-csrc" style="numbered">
    <xi:include href="samples/hello-in-C/hello-world.c" parse="text"><xi:fallback/></xi:include>
  </code>

  <p>GtkApplication initializes GTK+. It also connects the <gui>x</gui> button
  that's automatically generated along with the window to the "destroy" signal.
  We can start building our first window.
  We do this by creating a variable called <var>window</var> and assigning it
  a gtk_application_window_new. The window title can be any string you want it
  to be. To be on the safe side, it's best to stick to UTF-8 encoding.
  The code above will create a dialog window similar to what can be seen below:</p>

  <media type="image" mime="image/png" src="media/hello-world.png"/>
