- Arch: [`AUR`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/radical-native-bin/)
- MacOS: [`.pkg`](https://github.com/stoically/radical-native/releases)

The Radical Native Firefox Add-on facilitates the communication between Riot Web and the Radical Native Binary.
## Usage
- Open any Riot website in your browser
- Click the Radical Native icon in the toolbar (RAM icon)
- Riot website should reload and the toolbar icon should have an "on" badge
- Check Riot's "Settings > Security & Privacy > Message search > Manage", it should show ongoing work## Troubleshooting
- Try to execute the `radical-native` binary directly - it should respond with "ready: true"
- Check the Radical Native Add-on console for error logs: `about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox` > Radical Native Inspect
- If indexing gets stuck you can safely disable and enable it in the "Manage" dialog## Development
