2. Run shards install

Usage

require "vte"

class App < Gtk::Application
  @[GObject::Virtual]
  def activate
    window = Gtk::ApplicationWindow.new(self)
    window.title = "Basic Terminal"
    window.set_default_size(1024, 480)

    terminal = Vte::Terminal.new
    terminal.feed("Crystal VTE bindings! 🎉️")

    window.child = terminal
    window.present
  end
