   5 <para>Vala is a high level programming language that produces binaries for the native platform. The binaries maintain the C Application Binary Interface (ABI) and can be built as either an application or a library.</para>
   6 <para>The Vala Reference Manual gives details on Vala's syntax and type system, including polymorphism using interfaces and type parameters (generics). Vala includes additional code generation routines, for example D-Bus inter-process communication and GTK+3 composite templates, these are only referred to in the Attributes section. The reference manual does not provide a tutorial for these features.</para>
