# folders_sync
A macOS menu bar application which syncs the contents of one folder to another.
## Getting Started
To build the app locally, the following tools are required:
- Flutter stable >= 2.10
- Dart >= 2.16
- macOS:
- Xcode >= 13.0
- CocoaPods >= 1.11.0
- Rust
then use `cargo run` (or `cargo run --target=x86_64-apple-darwin` on Silicon Macs) to run the app.
## Why NativeShell?
Menu bar applications can be natively setup by defining `LSUIElement` to true in `Info.plist`, adding a `NSStatusItem` in `MainFlutterWindow.swift` and creating a native context menu in Interface Builder. However, I could not find a way to open a flutter window from a native context menu. NativeShell simplifies this process while bring other benefits such as native drag & drop.
## Code Generation
### Localizations
To add new localizations, update `assets_dev/loca/loca.csv` and run
```sh
sh bin/loca_generate.sh
```
