+# Tray
+
+Library for managing the systemtray by implementing the [StatusNotifierItem](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/StatusNotifierItem/) protocol.
+
+## Installation
+
+1. install dependencies
+
+:::code-group
+
+```sh [<i class="devicon-archlinux-plain"></i> Arch]
+sudo pacman -Syu meson gtk3 gobject-introspection libdbusmenu-gtk3
+```
+
+```sh [<i class="devicon-fedora-plain"></i> Fedora]
+sudo dnf install meson gcc gtk3-devel libdbusmenu-gtk3 gobject-introspection-devel
+```
+
+```sh [<i class="devicon-ubuntu-plain"></i> Ubuntu]
+sudo apt install meson libgtk-3-dev libdbusmenu-gtk3-dev gobject-introspection
+```
+
+:::
+
+2. clone repo
+
+```sh
+git clone https://github.com/aylur/astal.git
+cd astal/lib/tray
+```
+
+3. install
+
+```sh
+meson setup build
+meson install -C build
+```
+
+:::tip
+Most distros recommend manual installs in `/usr/local`,
+which is what `meson` defaults to. If you want to install to `/usr`
+instead which most package managers do, set the `prefix` option:
+
+```sh
+meson setup --prefix /usr build
+```
+
