The module does something which should be summarised here.
Example:
    Something representitive of the overall module::
        from example import ClassyClass
        # Explain non-obvious behaviour
        c = ClassyClass(a=1, b=2)
        c.props.c = 3
        c.thing()
STABLE.
'''
from gi.repository import GObject
class ClassyClass(GObject.GObject):
    '''
    The ClassyClass does blah, blah.  Explain common usage pattern of
    this class, such as calling the `thing` function to do a thing.
    The `lol` signal is emitted when the class is laughing or when a
    different non-obvious condition happens.
    Args:

        d (:class:`sugar3.graphics.alert.Alert`): remember to link
            classes using the correct syntax
    .. code-block:: python
        c = ClassyClass()
        # This is just an example of using this class
    '''
    def __init__(self, **kwargs):
        GObject.GObject.__init__(self, **kwargs)
    def thing(self, happy, lol=False):
        '''
        What a description for this function!
