riiry launcher

Rewrite it in Rust they said...

rofi launcher is pretty sweet (especially those app icons amirite?) but why isn't it cross platform? Also, haven't they heard Rust is what computers crave?

Build

Rust has pretty nice tooling, just build and run with cargo:

cargo build

cargo run

NixOS

default.nix is ready to be used with nix-shell and should be as simple as:

git clone https://github.com/AshyIsMe/riiry
cd riiry

nix-shell

cargo run

(Note: default.nix is based on what is required for neovim-gtk and probably has some extras still)

Other linux distros

Ubuntu: apt install libgtk-3-dev

OSX

Just use nix (untested lol...)

https://nixos.org/nix/download.html

Windows

Should be possible but not tested yet.

gtk-rs supports windows: http://gtk-rs.org/docs/requirements.html#windows

fd supports windows: https://github.com/sharkdp/fd#on-windows
