Linux

Froggum requires the following dependencies:

• valac
• libgranite-dev (optional for feature-windows branch)
• libgee-0.8
• libvala-0.34-dev (or higher)
• meson
• libxml2.0-dev

Run meson build to configure the build. Change to the build directory and run ninja to build, and ninja install to install.

git glone https://github.com/sapoturge/froggum.git
cd froggum
meson build --prefix=/usr
cd build
ninja
sudo ninja install

Froggum can then be run by com.github.sapoturge.froggum.

Windows

The Granite library does not support running on Windows. The feature-windows branch does support being compiled and run on Windows using MinGW (and probably Cygwin, but I haven’t tested it.). It requires all dependencies above except libgranite-dev. The process is otherwise almost identical:

git clone https://github.com/sapoturge/froggum.git
cd froggum
git checkout feature-windows
meson build --prefix=/usr
cd build
ninja
ninja install

Froggum can then be run by com.github.sapoturge.froggum, as usual.

Mac OS

I was not able to install Froggum while I had access to a Mac, but you are welcome to try. Mac is Unix-derived, so Granite might work on it. Try following the instructions for Linux above, and if that doesn’t work install as for Windows. These two branches will be merged eventually, without Granite, so the process will be simpler everywhere.
