Description

A development system that reads GObject-based libraries and produces introspection metadata. This metadata lets language bindings and tools understand library APIs without manually writing every binding by hand.

Install it when building GNOME, GTK, or GObject libraries that need introspection data. Most ordinary users receive it as a build or development dependency.

How to run
