As of now `gtk4-layer-shell` is unavailable on recent, stable releases of many distros (Debian 12, Ubuntu 24.04, openSUSE Leap & Tumbleweed, etc.) and outdated on many others (Nixpkgs 24.11/unstable, Fedora 41, etc.) This is inconvenient for our users and severely limits where the quick terminal can be used. As a result we then build gtk4-layer-shell ourselves by default unless `--system` or `-fsys=gtk4-layer-shell` are specified. This also allows me to add an idiomatic Zig API on top of the library and avoiding adding even more raw C code in the GTK apprt. Since we now build gtk4-layer-shell it should be theoretically available on all Linux systems we target. As such, the `-Dgtk-layer-shell` build option has been removed. This is somewhat of an experimental change as I don't know if gtk4-layer-shell works perfectly across all distros, and we can always add the option back if need be.
Packages
This folder contains packages written for and used by Ghostty that could potentially be useful for other projects. These are in-tree with Ghostty because I don't want to maintain them as separate projects (i.e. get dedicated issues, PRs, etc.). If you want to use them, you can copy and paste them into your project.
