# Write.as GTK App
|
|
|
|
|
A Write.as desktop app that targets all freedesktop.org compliant desktops, e.g.
|
|
|
|
|
GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, etc; basically everything except Windows, Mac, iOS, and
|
|
|
|
|
Android. It allows you to compose and publish posts to https://write.as/.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For a UI toolkit it uses GTK (where some systems may slightly prefer, say, Qt),
|
|
|
|
|
but do to the simplicity of the app this shouldn't be much of a problem to anyone.

## Installation
|
2018-04-18 02:00:26 +00:00
|
|
|
Write.as GTK uses the [Meson/Ninja](http://mesonbuild.com/) build system, and as such you can install it on
|
2018-04-18 01:45:35 +00:00
|
|
|
any FreeDesktop.Org compatible system using:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
|
|
|
cd build
|
|
|
|
|
meson ..
|
|
|
|
|
ninja
|
|
|
|
|
sudo ninja install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will install the executable file and the metadata required to integrate with
|
|
|
|
|
those desktops. It also installs metadata to be collected by package repositories
|

|
|
|
which integrate with certain package managers for richer presentation of apps.
