# {{APP_TITLE}}
{{APP_SUMMARY}}
This project was generated from elementary-app-template
## How to Generate Projects From This Template
### Latest version
Template releases align with elementary Flatpak platform releases.
`main` branch follows the latest elementary Flatpak platform version as closely as possible.
So you can press the "Use this template" button to use the latest template.
### Older versions
For templates based on older elementary Flatpak platorm versions, you can either:
- Download archives from GitHub releases
- Check out tag branches corresponding the elementary Flatpak platform version you would like to target
e.g `7.3.0` for the template targeting elementary Flatpak Platform 7.3. You can then manage the git history and refs to meet your needs.
## Build Instructions
### Flatpak (Recommended)
Either:
- Use Visual Studio Code with [Flatpak extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=bilelmoussaoui.flatpak-vscode)
- Use [GNOME Builder](https://apps.gnome.org/en-GB/app/org.gnome.Builder/)
- Flatpak integrations of your preferred IDE/Code Editor
- Or use the [flatpak and flatpak-builder](https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/first-build.htm) commands.
### Meson
#### Dependencies
- glib-2.0
- gobject-2.0
- gee-0.8
- gtk4
- granite-7
- libadwaita-1
#### Template Setup
Before you can build the project, you'll need to setup your project from the template.
Make the `setup` script exectuable if it isn't already:
(Assuming you're in the project root)
```sh
chmod +x ./setup
```
Then run the `./setup` script
(Assuming you're in the project root)
```sh
./setup
```
After running the setup script, you will be ready to build the project.
#### Build Commands
To setup build diectory:
```sh
meson build --prefix=/usr
```
To build:
(Assuming you're in the project root and have already setup the build directory)
```sh
cd build
ninja
```
To test:
(Assuming you're in the project root and have already built the app)
```sh
cd build
meson test
```
Or, to get more details about what's happening in the tests, add the `--verbose` flag:
```sh
cd build
meson test --verbose
```
To install:
(Assuming you're in project root)
```sh
cd build
sudo ninja install
```
