How to contribute

Prerequisites

Hovercraft is made for Ubuntu 14.x or later. You need to have Node 5.10.0 installed before you can run npm install. (If you have a different version of Node installed while running npm install, the native modules will not be compatible with the version of electron we use)

Use nvm to easily switch between Node versions.

Additionally, to build node-xtest-bindings (the module that actually fakes mouse clicks), you need to have the xtest library development files installed.

sudo apt-get install libxtst-dev
nvm use 5.10.0
npm i

After waiting quite a while, you can then run hovercraft.

npm start

How do I start applications automatically on login?
