Note

You're early — and that's the point. Vauchi is pre-alpha and under heavy development: not yet ready for production, and APIs may change without notice. If you're here now, you can help shape it — try it, break it, and tell us what's missing.

Vauchi Linux Qt

Native Linux desktop app (Qt variant) for Vauchi — living contact cards, exchanged in person.

Built with Qt6 Widgets + C++. Uses vauchi-cabi C ABI bindings via QJsonDocument.

Prerequisites

• Qt6 development libraries (qt6-base-dev)
• CMake 3.16+
• C++17 compiler

Build

mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make

Architecture

This app implements the core-driven UI contract:

• PresentationController applies Core command batches atomically
• PresentationState retains surfaces, active-pane composition, contextual controls, and overlays by opaque identifier
• PresentationSurface maps generic nodes to native Qt widgets
• Platform adapters own focus, keyboard shortcuts, motion, file pickers, hardware, QSystemTrayIcon, and QMenuBar

All business logic lives in vauchi-core (Rust). This repo is a pure rendering and platform-adapter layer.

Packaging

• RPM spec (packaging/vauchi-qt.spec)
• Desktop entry (packaging/vauchi-qt.desktop)
