RusTTY

The TTY shell of the future, written in Rust.

Building

Getting the source

git clone https://source.rustty.org/shell/rustty.git
cd rustty/

To build, run the following in the repo root directory:

meson setup build
meson compile -C build

You can append the -Dprofile=debug argument to build for debug.

Installing

To install a build, run:

meson install -C build

Cross Compiling

PLEASE install cross-rs via:

cargo install cross --git https://github.com/cross-rs/cross

The cross project is in a weird state where it doesn't have much motivation and/or time to cut a release, so you need to pull from the main branch to get a lot of bug fixes since the 'latest' release as of December 2024.

Then, you can run:

meson setup build -Dtarget=aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu
meson compile -C build
