A Work-In-Progress program to bring the old-fashioned task manager to linux using Qt6 framework
If you want to have the Aero theme as seen in the screenshot, take a look into wackyideas/aerothemeplasma
To build the program you need cmake and qt6 base. These should be available on all rolling release distros as well as on the latest Ubuntu. To build the program, simply run the build.sh script to streamline the process and compiled binary will be found from build/ directory
When Qt Test is installed (it comes with qt6 base on Arch and Ubuntu), the unit tests are built too. Run them with ctest --test-dir build.
To install the dependencies on Arch:
sudo pacman -S cmake qt6-base
To install the dependencies on Ubuntu:
sudo apt install cmake qt6-base-dev
