If you're like us and strive for succinct and beautiful code, here is a cleaner implementation of the code above:
```lua
local basalt = require("basalt")
local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame("mainFrame"):show()
local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame()
local button = mainFrame --> Basalt returns an instance of the object on most methods, to make use of "call-chaining"
:addButton("clickableButton") --> This is an example of call chaining
:addButton() --> This is an example of call chaining
:setPosition(4,4)
:setText("Click me!")
:onClick(
function()
basalt.debug("I got clicked!")
end)
:show()
basalt.autoUpdate()
```
