# WebCord

A Discord and Fosscord client implemented directly without Discord API. Made in poland with the Electron framework.

## Quick run

Installing it using flathub:

```

flatpak install io.github.spacingbat3.webcord

```

## Building it from sources

Install the build deps:

```

flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Platform//23.08 org.freedesktop.Sdk//23.08

flatpak install flathub org.electronjs.Electron2.BaseApp

```

Build and install:

```

flatpak-builder --user --install --force-clean build_dir io.github.spacingbat3.webcord.yml

```

## Use global menu

To make WebCord work with the global menu you have to give the flatpak access to `com.canonical.AppMenu.Registrar`, this can be done with

```

flatpak override --talk-name=com.canonical.AppMenu.Registrar io.github.spacingbat3.webcord

```

or using flatseal

## Recommendations

Running the app in a native Wayland context:

```

flatpak run --branch=stable --arch=x86_64 io.github.spacingbat3.webcord --ignore-gpu-blocklist --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform,VaapiVideoDecoder,WebRTCPipeWireCapturer,smooth-scrolling,gpu-rasterization,zero-copy --ozone-platform=wayland

```

> This will make use of the Ozone Platform setting, which comes with a Wayland mode by default.

> Also added in `WebRTCPipeWireCapturer` to screenshare stuff using Pipewire Web RTC. Just make sure you have the xdg-portals installed properly.
