Qawl v2

Current status: 80% parity with previous version (missing dark theme, icons on hover tooltips, mostly)

This project uses Github Projects to plan development — feel free to join in!

Feel free to email me if you are interested in contributing right now, before the foundation is done: [email protected] . Sorry if things are a bit messy, but I recommend checking this repo out a few weeks later!

Old version: https://github.com/mr-islam/qawl

Sorry this readme is bad, making it public quickly in case people want to contribute early ♥

Development

Preparation

1. Make sure you have node properly setup with a recent version (I use 14.x).
2. Install yarn
3. Also ensure you have node-gyp (this guide can help)
4. Clone this repo
5. Run yarn to install dependencies

(The repo uses an automatic postinstall script to patch the npm package electron-update-notification to use a promise .then() instead of callbacks. I haven't been able to test if I set this up correctly, but hopefully it's fine. You can check the installed package files manually, or just message me for help to ensure it's all good.)

Action 5. Run a local build with electron-dev, has hot-reload 6. Build a package with dist-[platform] choosing the relevant platform from the scripts available in the package.json

Many thanks to Albert Nye for his svelte electron template!
