Current "plain description" is let's make it work and cover all fundamental operations with tests. Depending on expectation I would place node-gir between alfa na beta. GIR itself is not mature enough (though it's stable enough) to describe every single detail. GTK itself has been designed for C developers and docs are friendly for such. Node-gir provides runtime dynamic bindings so if you expect API docs, one should provide special routines to generate Node ones. The more feedback we have the node-gir design is more strict and clear.

@piotras You mean node-gir is now alpha version.
No wonder loading "Gtk" module is slower than that in Seed.
By now only Gjs is mature enough then?

@jiyinyiyong I would say it's between alpha and beta. Check tests: https://travis-ci.org/piotras/node-gir/builds/2897206.
They pass for most fundamental types and options. Still there's a lack of in&out arguments, but I find them only C level friendly. Wrt module loading speed. Do you have some real numbers? What about runtime performance? I can take a look and check module loading time, but I would like to know whether I need to fix 5% or 65% for example.

Test two files here:
load.js
// Generated by CoffeeScript 1.4.0
var Gtk, gir;
if (typeof console !== "undefined" && console !== null) {
gir = require('gir');
gir.load('Gtk', '3.0');
} else if (typeof print !== "undefined" && print !== null) {
Gtk = imports.gi.Gtk;
}log.js
// Generated by CoffeeScript 1.4.0
if (typeof console !== "undefined" && console !== null) {
console.log('node');
} else if (typeof print !== "undefined" && print !== null) {
print('seed');
}Run in terminal
