On this project I use bun which can be install with the following command

  curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash # for macOS, Linux, and WSL

When you first git clone this project you need to install the nodejs dependencies

Now to start the development version of the client

  bunx tauri dev

Troubleshooting

Pop-shell window exception

For the users that are using pop-shell, you can add the client window(s) as an exception to the auto tilling feature. This will make the meme windows keep its default size and appear on the screen as it should be. To do so :

1. click on the pop-shell app indicator in your status bar
2. click on “Floating window exceptions”
3. click on “Select”
4. wait for a meme window to appear and click on it
5. click on “This app's windows”.
