Pull requests are greatly appreciated.\n\n![screenshot](/doc/screenshot.png)\n\n# Installation\n\nPackages are available for Windows, Linux, and MacOS.\n\nBelow are the supported distribution mechanisms. There may be other ways to download/install the application, but this project will likely not be able to offer any support for those since they are made availble by other individuals.\n\n## Windows\nWindows packages are available as an installer or a stand-alone zip file on the [release](https://github.com/dail8859/NotepadNext/releases) page. The installer provides additional components such as an auto-updater and Windows context menu integration. You can easily install it with Winget:\n\n```powershell\nwinget install dail8859.NotepadNext\n```\n\n## Linux\nLinux packages can be obtained by downloading the stand-alone AppImage on the [release](https://github.com/dail8859/NotepadNext/releases) page or by installing the [flatpak](https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.github.dail8859.NotepadNext) by executing:\n\n```bash\nflatpak install flathub com.github.dail8859.NotepadNext\n```\n\n## MacOS\nMacOS disk images can be downloaded from the [release](https://github.com/dail8859/NotepadNext/releases) page.\n\nIt can also be installed using brew:\n```bash\nbrew tap dail8859/notepadnext\nbrew install --no-quarantine notepadnext\n```\n\n#### MacOS Tweaks\n\nBy default, MacOS enables font smoothing which causes text to appear quite differently from the Windows version. This can be disabled system-wide using the following command:\n\n```bash\ndefaults -currentHost write -g AppleFontSmoothing -int 0\n```\n\nA restart is required for this to take effect.\n\n# Development\nCurrent development is done using QtCreator with the Microsft Visual C++ (msvc) compiler. Qt 6.5 is the currently supported Qt version. Older versions of Qt are likely to work but are not tested. Any fixes for older versions will be accepted as long as they do not introduce complex fixes. This application is also known to build successfully on various Linux distributions and macOS. Other platforms/compilers should be usable with minor modifications.\n\nIf you are familiar with building C++ Qt desktop applications with Qt Creator, then this should be as simple as opening `src/NotepadNext.pro` and build/run the project.\n\nIf you are new to building C++ Qt desktop applications, there is a more detailed guide [here](/doc/Building.md).\n\n\n# License\nThis code is released under the [GNU General Public License version 3](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt).\n","funding_links":["https://github.com/sponsors/dail8859"],"categories":[],"sub_categories":[],"project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdail8859%2Fnotepadnext","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fdail8859%2Fnotepadnext","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fdail8859%2Fnotepadnext/lists"}
