 midst of developing our key features. Consequently this code is not yet ready for use in production.*

+and you can react to signal emissions by declaring a handler using the `=>` arrow syntax. The built-in `TouchArea`
 element comes with a `clicked` signal, that's emitted when the user touches the rectangular area covered by the element, or clicks into
 it with the mouse. In the example below, the emission of that signal is forwarded to another custom signal (`hello`) by declaring a
 handler and emitting our custom signal:
