Installing

You can find prebuilt binaries for Min here. Alternatively, skip to the section below for instructions on how to build Min directly from source.

Installation on Linux

To install the .deb file, use sudo dpkg -i /path/to/download
To install the RPM build, use sudo rpm -i /path/to/download --ignoreos
On Arch Linux install from AUR.
On Raspberry Pi, you can install Min from Pi-Apps.

Getting Started

The wiki provides an overview of the the features available in Min, and a list of available keyboard shortcuts.
Min supports installing userscripts to extend its functionality. See the userscript documentation for instructions on writing userscripts, as well as a collection of scripts written by the community.

Developing

If you want to develop Min:

Install Node.
Run npm install to install dependencies.
Start Min in development mode by running npm run start.
After you make changes, press alt+ctrl+r (or opt+cmd+r on Mac) to reload the browser UI.

Building binaries

In order to build Min from source, follow the installation instructions above, then use one of the following commands to create binaries:

npm run buildWindows
npm run buildMacIntel
npm run buildMacArm
npm run buildDebian
npm run buildRaspi (for 32-bit Raspberry Pi)
npm run buildLinuxArm64 (for 64-bit Raspberry Pi or other ARM Linux)
npm run buildRedhat

Depending on the platform you are building for, you may need to install additional dependencies:

If you are using macOS and building a package for Linux, install Homebrew, then run brew install fakeroot dpkg first.
If you are using macOS or Linux and building a package for Windows, you will need to install Mono and Wine.
If you are building a macOS package, you'll need to install Xcode and the associated command-line tools. You may also need to set your default SDK to macOS 11.0 or higher, which you can do by running export SDKROOT=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX11.1.sdk. The exact command will depend on where Xcode is installed and which SDK version you're using.
To build on Windows, you'll need to install Visual Studio. Once it's installed, you may also need to run npm config set msvs_version 2019 (or the appropriate version).

Contributing Translations

Adding a new language

Find the language code that goes with your language from this list (line 55 - 230).
In the localization/languages directory, create a new file, and name it "[your language code].json".
Open your new file, and copy the contents of the localization/languages/en-US.json file into your new file.
Change the "identifier" field in the new file to the language code from step 1.
Inside the file, replace each English string in the right-hand column with the equivalent translation.
(Optional) See your translations live by following the development instructions above. Min will display in the same language as your operating system, so make sure your computer is set to the same language that you're translating.
That's it! Make a pull request with your changes.

Updating an existing language

Find the language file for your language in the localization/languages directory.
Look through the file for any items that have a value of "null", or that have a comment saying "missing translation".
For each of these items, look for the item with the same name in the en-US.json file.
Translate the value from the English file, replace "null" with your translation, and remove the "missing translation" comment.
Make a pull request with the updated file.
