Linux

Note on Qt version compatibility: If you are installing Qt from a package manager, please ensure the version you are installing is at least Qt 5.10 or newer.

Ubuntu 18.04

most likely works the same for other Debian-like distros

  1. Install dependencies (and the C++ IDE Qt Creator) sudo apt install qtcreator qtmultimedia5-dev libqt5svg5-dev libboost-dev libssl-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-filesystem-dev
  2. Open chatterino.pro with QT Creator and build

Arch Linux

install chatterino2-git from the aur or build manually as follows:

  1. sudo pacman -S qt5-base qt5-multimedia qt5-svg gst-plugins-ugly gst-plugins-good boost rapidjson
  2. go into project directory
  3. create build folder mkdir build && cd build
  4. qmake .. && make

Fedora 28 and above

most likely works the same for other Red Hat-like distros. Substitue dnf with yum.

Development dependencies

  1. sudo dnf install qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qtmultimedia-devel qt5-qtsvg-devel libsecret-devel openssl-devel boost-devel
  2. go into project directory
  3. create build folder mkdir build && cd build
  4. qmake-qt5 .. && make -j$(nproc)

Optional dependencies

gstreamer-plugins-good package is retired in Fedora 31, see: rhbz#1735324

  1. sudo dnf install gstreamer-plugins-good (optional: for audio output)

NixOS 18.09+

  1. enter the development environment with all of the dependencies: nix-shell -p openssl boost qt5.full pkg-config
  2. go into project directory
  3. create build folder mkdir build && cd build
  4. qmake .. && make
