A cross platform gui/cli app for installing Vencord

Vencord Installer

Vencord Installer allows you to install Vencord, a Discord Desktop client mod

Usage

Windows

Warning Do not run the installer as Admin

Download VencordInstaller.exe and run it

Alternatively, if you are on Windows 7, 32bit or the installer doesn't open for other reasons, download the CLI from releases and run it via the terminal

Linux

sh -c "$(curl -sS https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Vendicated/VencordInstaller/main/install.sh)"

MacOs

Download the latest MacOs build, unzip it, and run VencordInstaller.app

If you get a VencordInstaller can't be opened warning, right-click VencordInstaller.app and click open.

This warning shows because the app isn't signed since I'm not willing to pay 100 bucks a year for an Apple Developer license.

Building from source

You need the go compiler

To build the gui (you can build the cli without these), you also need gcc (MinGW on Windows) and the following additional dependencies if on Linux:

apt install -y pkg-config libsdl2-dev libglx-dev libgl1-mesa-dev

# X11
apt install -y xorg-dev

# Wayland
apt install -y libwayland-dev libxkbcommon-dev wayland-protocols extra-cmake-modules

Then just run

go mod tidy

# Windows / MacOs / Linux X11
go build
# or build the Cli
go build --tags cli

# Linux Wayland
go build --tags wayland

You might want to pass some flags to this command to get a better build. See the GitHub workflow for what flags I pass or if you want more precise instructions
