On windows, just grab the msi installer. I have not able to generate the AppImage with tauri, so I am distributing a namked binary. The assets are embedding in the sourcecode, So don't worry about it.
This is a standard tauri app written in typescript with no frameworks, hence this should be fairly easy to compile and run if you are familiar with the tauri ecosystem. If not follow Tauri quickstart
Install the typescript compiler either from npm or your package manager.
npm install -g typescript
pacman -S typescript
After the prerequisites are installed, clone the repo and run the following commands:
npm install --save-dev @tauri-apps/cli
tsc
npm run tauri dev
