Overview

The GTK app is kept in two different repos -- the main version is on Code.as, and a variant for elementaryOS is on GitHub. We should bring both build flavors under a single repo to make management easier.

Background

elementaryOS requires a different ID naming scheme and packaging of dependencies, hence the different build. Specifically:

• ID:
  • Main: writeas-gtk
  • elementary: com.github.writeas.writeas-gtk
• CLI:
  • Main: installed separately / as deb dependency
  • elementary: CLI included as submodule, with its dependencies copied into src dir (explanation here)
• Fonts like Lora:
  • Main: installed separately / as deb dependency
  • elementary: included as submodule in fonts dir

Implementation

TODO. There are likely many different steps involved for each issue.
