To the user, the Hello World program is very simple. It consists of a primary window with a single menu and a scrollable window within the primary. In the scrollable window is a phrase of text: "Welcome to GEOS!"

The menu has a single item, "Color," which brings up a dialog box with two buttons in it. One button is labeled "Blue" and turns the text blue, and the other is labeled "Gold" and turns the text yellow. The menu is pinnable, like all GEOS menus, and the dialog box may be moved around the screen and closed like any other independently-displayable dialog box.
