Open undefinedactive opened 1 week ago
Hi @undefinedactive, a few weeks ago, we were contacted by someone interested in porting the application. He already created a fork to work on that, but I'm not sure, whether already something has been started yet.
The issue is, we don't have much experience in app development on Linux. Most of the libraries used should port (kind of) easily to Linux, but we still have to resolve the Windows filesystem-oriented issues.
We'd appreciate, if there would be one or more people supporting us here.
Thank you for reply :) I guess the latest fork would be this one, maybe this is the guy? Sadly there are no commits :(
Will take a look into it and report back, what would make the most sense for packaging the app.
Will leave some links just for future reference:
Thanks for the reminder. There are most probably no commits, because some internal libs are missing. I forgot to create the repos for them.
Ok :) In the meantime running NumeRe on linux with the help of Bottles. Some examples:
@undefinedactive Nice to know. Would you mind to create a very brief manual on how you managed to get it up and running? I'll gratefully add that to the relevant places, where somebody would look for this information (e.g. our blog, the FAQ section, here on GitHub), giving you credit, of course.
It seems that it's lacking the correct code font. "Consolas" might be a Windows thing. You can change that to your likings in the "Style" tab in the options dialog (either under "Tools" or via clicking on the toothgear icon).
DESCRIPTION
What does your feature request improve on? Please describe. The feature would allow linux users to use the software without emulation or virtualization.
Describe the solution you'd like Linux version of the software can be packaged in different ways: flatpak, AppImage, Snap, distro specific package (deb, rpm)...
