Building

I am very sorry you have to do this.

1. Install Rust. This is the easy part.
2. Install the Vulkan SDK.

• TODO: Since I switched to forcing DX12 on Windows, is this still needed?

3. Install GTK.

• If you're on Ubuntu, install libgtk-4-dev
• On Windows, there are three paths to install GTK.
  • You could install GTK via vcpkg, which is what I wound up doing in CI/CD. This is probably the only easy option, but it takes a long while to build.
  • GTK itself recommends MSYS2, but GTK-RS recommends gvsbuild.
  • I actually chose neither! gvsbuild distributes nightlies as a ZIP that can be installed into C:\gtk. I set the following path vars:
    • PATH - add C:\gtk\bin to the existing list
    • INCLUDE - C:\gtk\include;C:\gtk\include\cairo;C:\gtk\include\glib-2.0;C:\gtk\include\gobject-introspection-1.0;C:\gtk\lib\glib-2.0\include; (if you have this already, also add them to the existing list)
    • LIB - C:\gtk\lib
    • PKG_CONFIG_PATH - C:\gtk\lib\pkgconfig
• On Apple, god help you.

4. For Pipewire support, manually install the Pipewire development headers (i.e. libpipewire-0.3-dev) if your distro requires it. You'll also need to enable the pipewire feature.
