# Nett Icon Viewer
Nett Icon Viewer is a program that displays icons from a GTK icon theme.
The word Nett is German for "Nice", so the literal translation of the name is "Nice Icon Viewer."
## Building
The main application is built with [`gtk-rs`](https://gtk-rs.org/) so you must have the required dependencies for it to be installed.
### Prerequisites
#### Fedora
```bash
sudo dnf install gtk4-devel
```
#### Debian/Ubuntu
```bash
sudo apt install libgtk-4-dev build-essential
```
#### Arch Linux
```bash
sudo pacman -S gtk4 base-devel
```
### Building
```bash
cargo build
```
#### Running
To test/run the application you can run:
```bash
cargo run
```
## Installing
It is planned to be able to install the application using flatpak, but I haven't been able to that yet.
For now, you can use `meson` and `ninja` to install the application.
### Prerequisites
#### Fedora
```bash
sudo dnf install meson ninja
```
#### Debian/Ubuntu
```bash
sudo apt install meson ninja-build
```
#### Arch Linux
```bash
sudo pacman -S meson ninja
```
### Building
To install the application you need `meson` and `ninja`.
```bash
meson build
ninja install -C build
```
