endless-sky-thrower

Endless Sky Launcher made with GTKMM

The name is a joke, since it's, you know, a launcher

Features

• Multiple installations

  • Continuous builds (Fresh from the releases section)
  • Stable builds (If you don't want to install a potentially unstable release)
  • Custom builds (Just point to the executable and voilà)
  • PRs (Write the PR number and ESThrower will compile and setup it for you)

• These installations can have optional requirements:

  • Vanilla (Won't get polluted with plugins)
  • Autoupdate (Only available for Continuous instances, automatically downloads the build everytime the launcher is opened)

• Plugin installer and uninstaller

• Changelog viewer

Compilation

Install the dependencies:

• Arch: yay -S curl gtkmm3 git-extras meson libarchive cmake
• Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt install libgtkmm-3.0-dev curl git-extras meson libarchive-dev cmake

Then, just run:

git clone https://github.com/DisableGraphics/endless-sky-thrower
cd endless-sky-thrower
meson setup builddir
meson compile -C builddir

Wanted:

Someone who can help me port this to macOS
