+# Gjs: Javascript Bindings for GNOME
+
+Gjs is a Javascript binding for GNOME. It's mainly based on Spidermonkey javascript engine and the GObject 
introspection framework.
+
+If you use it, especially for GNOME-related projects, please follow the [Style Guide](). Otherwise, 
JavaScript is so free-form that code becomes very difficult to maintain.
+
+## Documentation
+
+Documentation for Gnome libraries (GLib, GObject, Gtk, etc) is currently hosted at 
[https://devdocs.baznga.org/](https://devdocs.baznga.org/).
+
+There are also a growing number of usage examples in the GitLab repository under 
[examples/](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/tree/master/examples) and thorough tests of language features 
in the [test suite](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/tree/master/installed-tests/js).
+
+As of GJS 1.50, ES6 support (AKA ECMAScript 2015) is nearly complete, including support for "legacy" style 
GJS classes.
+
+If you are curious when a language feature landed or interested in targeting a range of GJS versions, review 
[NEWS](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gjs/raw/master/NEWS) in the GitLab repository. In many cases you can 
support older versions of GJS using [polyfills](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Glossary/Polyfill) and 
legacy-style classes.
