Compton ======= **This is a development branch, bug to be expected** This is forked from the original Compton because that seems to have become unmaintained. The current battle plan of this fork is to refactor it to make the code _possible_ to maintain, so potential contributors won't be scared away when they take a look at the code. We also try to fix bugs. The original README can be found [here](README_orig.md) ## Changelog See [Releases](https://github.com/yshui/compton/releases) ## Build ### Dependencies Assuming you already have all the usual building tools installed (e.g. gcc, meson, ninja, etc.), you still need: * libx11 * libx11-xcb * libXext * xproto * xcb * xcb-damage * xcb-xfixes * xcb-shape * xcb-renderutil * xcb-render * xcb-randr * xcb-composite * xcb-image * xcb-present * xcb-xinerama (optional, disable with the `-Dxinerama=false` meson configure flag) * pixman * libdbus (optional, disable with the `-Ddbus=false` meson configure flag) * libconfig (optional, disable with the `-Dconfig_file=false` meson configure flag) * libxdg-basedir (optional, disable with the `-Dconfig_file=false` meson configure flag) * libGL (optional, disable with the `-Dopengl=false` meson configure flag) * libpcre (optional, disable with the `-Dregex=false` meson configure flag) * libev To build the documents, you need `asciidoc` ### How to build ```bash $ meson --buildtype=release . build $ ninja -C build ``` Built binary can be found in `build/src` ## How to Contribute ### Code You can look at the [Projects](https://github.com/yshui/compton/projects) page, and see if there is anything interests you. Or you can take a look at the [Issues](https://github.com/yshui/compton/issues). ### Non-code Even if you don't want to contribute code, you can still contribute by compiling and running this branch, and report any issue you can find. ## Contributors See [CONTRIBUTORS](CONTRIBUTORS)
