How to install

AUR  AUR package

Arch based distributions can install ChillSpot from the AUR, or using an aurhelper such as yay: yay -S chillspot

Flatpak

Note: Flatpak applications run in a sandbox and cannot directly communicate with the system's EC. You must also install the background daemon on your host system. See the Daemon Installation Instructions on our wiki for more details.

You can install ChillSpot from the official FVtronics Flatpak repository:

flatpak remote-add --user --if-not-exists fvtronics https://www.fvtronics.com/flatpak/repo/fvtronics.flatpakrepo
flatpak install --user fvtronics com.fvtronics.chillspot

Alternatively, ChillSpot can be built and installed locally with Flatpak Builder:

flatpak-builder --user --install --install-deps-from=flathub build-dir com.fvtronics.chillspot.json --force-clean

Build from source

ChillSpot uses the meson build system. Run the following commands to clone ChillSpot and initialize the build:

git clone https://codeberg.org/fvtronics/chillspot.git
cd chillspot
meson setup build

To install the built package on your system, run the following command:

meson install -C build
