Building from source

Linux

sudo apt-get install -y libgtk-3-dev libwebkit2gtk-4.1-dev libappindicator3-dev

Windows

Prerequisites

Jetbrains CLion is my IDE of choice, it already has with cmake and ninja bundled.

Building on Windows is only tested using mingw, I recently used https://github.com/niXman/mingw-builds-binaries/releases.

Running

Linux

You need to have access to /dev/ttyUSB*, this is usually managed by adding your use to a special group. In Debian and Ubuntu this can be achieved by adding yourself to the dialout group:

sudo usermod -a -G dialout $USER

You have to re-login after that, then you can use usb-power-osd.
