## A guide to installing swayfx on Debian
( You may have to adapt this guide to install on other distros )
### First install all required dependencies and download the source code
```bash
sudo apt install meson wayland-protocols wayland libpcre2-dev libjson-c-dev libpango-1.0-0 libcairo2-dev wget
```
### Next setup the build enviroment
```bash
mkdir ~/build
cd ~/build # Or whatever you have named it
# Downloading Wlroots
wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/archive/0.16.2/wlroots-0.16.2.tar.gz
tar -xf wlroots-0.16.2.tar.gz
rm wlroots-0.16.2.tar.gz
# Downloaing Swayfx
wget https://github.com/WillPower3309/swayfx/archive/refs/tags/0.3.2.tar.gz
tar -xf 0.3.2.tar.gz
rm 0.3.2.tar.gz
```
swayfx and wlroots should now be located in the `build` directory.
```
.
├── swayfx-0.3.2
├── wlroots-0.16.2
```
___
### Compiling
You MUST compile wlroots first.
```bash
cd wlroots-0.16.2
meson setup build/
ninja -C build/
```
Now to compile swayfx.
```bash
cd swayfx-0.3.2
meson build/
ninja -C build/
sudo ninja -C build/ install
