Please add documentation so people can build and run this.

AftDawn commented 2 years ago

yes, i have no idea how to work cmake, i run cmake /frontend-qt and it returns with the error

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:76 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindlibprojectM.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
  has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "libprojectM", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "libprojectM" with
  any of the following names:

    libprojectMConfig.cmake
    libprojectm-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "libprojectM" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "libprojectM_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "libprojectM" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
  has been installed.

any idea how to get it to build?

Will add documentation at some point, when it again makes sense to build this application. In the current state, it's completely broken and unusable. Will require some effort to make it work properly again, partially due to Qt changes and also libprojectM issues alike.

Any help in fixing the app and/or writing documentation is highly appreciated. If you're interested, drop by on our Discord and join the development channel to talk about details.
