That's too much! I just want to use it!

You can download a prebuilt installer from releases if you want.

Building yourself

You will need Node.js installed and added to the PATH, so just download the installer and make sure to select the box to add to PATH.

Running

You have to install the dependencies. So, just run npm install in the repo's folder. Once it's done, run npm start to start the application.

Building

The app also have a build method, used for distribution. It will generate a NSIS installer for the app, and a packaged version of it. To build the app for distribution, run npm run dist.

Errors

If Discord is not opened, or, for some reason, the RPC Client couldn't connect to it, an error will show in the app. It disappears in 15 seconds. Even if Discord is not opened, you can still use the app as a normal YouTube wrapper.
