## Development

If you want to hack on this project, here is how you do it.

<details><summary>Show building instructions</summary>

#### Installing dependencies

Install Node.js 22 first (or if you use [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm), switch to it by running `nvm use`).

<details><summary>Extra dependencies for Windows</summary>

```bash
npm install --global --production windows-build-tools
```
</details>

<details><summary>Extra dependencies for GNU/Linux</summary>

X11, PNG, and zlib development packages are necessary. On Debian-like systems, they can be installed as follows:

```bash
sudo apt install libx11-dev zlib1g-dev libpng-dev libxtst-dev
```
</details>

Install all required packages:

```bash
npm install
```

#### Starting in development mode

```bash
npm start
```

The debugger tools are available when running in dev mode, and can be activated with keyboard shortcuts as [defined here](https://github.com/sindresorhus/electron-debug#features).

They can also be displayed automatically with the application `--show-dev-tools` command line flag, or with the `SHOW_DEV_TOOLS` environment variable as shown:

```bash
SHOW_DEV_TOOLS=true npm start
```

#### Building the production distribution

```bash
npm run dist
```

#### Working with `jitsi-meet-electron-sdk`

For instructions on SDK versus electron-app separation and how to set up local development using `npm link`, please refer to the [Contributing and Local Development guide in the Jitsi Handbook](https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/dev-guide/dev-guide-electron-sdk#contributing-and-local-development).

#### Publishing

1. Create release branch: `git checkout -b release-1-2-3`, replacing `1-2-3` with the desired release version
2. Increment the version: `npm version patch`, replacing `patch` with `minor` or `major` as required
3. Push release branch to github: `git push -u origin release-1-2-3`
4. Create PR: `gh pr create`
5. Once PR is reviewed and ready to merge, create draft Github release: `gh release create v1.2.3 --draft --title 1.2.3`, replacing `v1.2.3` and `1.2.3` with the desired release version
6. Merge PR
7. Github action will build binaries and attach to the draft release
8. Test binaries from draft release
9. If all tests are fine, publish draft release

</details>

## Known issues

### Windows

A warning that the app is unsigned will show up upon first install. This is expected.

### macOS

None

### GNU/Linux

* If you can't execute the file directly after downloading it, try running `chmod u+x ./jitsi-meet-x86_64.AppImage`
  
* If you experience a blank page after a Jitsi server upgrades, try removing the local cache files:

```
  rm -rf ~/.config/Jitsi\ Meet/
  ```

## Translations

The JSON files contain all the strings inside the application, and can be translated [here](/app/i18n/lang).

New translations require the addition of a line in [languages.ts](/app/i18n/languages.ts).

`Localize desktop file on linux` requires the addition of a line in [package.json](/package.json).
Please search for `Comment[hu]` as an example to help add your translation of the English string `Jitsi Meet Desktop App` for your language.
