Install on Linux

DoneThat is distributed as an AppImage. Follow these steps to install and run it on Linux (tested on Ubuntu/Wayland).

1. Move the file: Place the downloaded AppImage in your desired location (e.g., ~/Applications, ~/Documents, or /opt).
2. Make it executable: In a terminal, run:

   sudo chmod +x /path/to/DoneThat-*.AppImage

3. Install FUSE (required for AppImage):

   sudo apt install fuse

4. Install gnome-screenshot (recommended): We tested a few tools and this worked best on Ubuntu with Wayland.

   sudo apt install gnome-screenshot

   You can switch to another screenshot tool later in the app settings if you prefer.

5. Run the app with the Chromium sandbox disabled:

   ./path/to/DoneThat-*.AppImage --no-sandbox

   This is needed because DoneThat bundles Chromium.

6. Stop the process: In the same terminal, press Ctrl+C to stop it.
7. Run detached (recommended):

   ./path/to/DoneThat-*.AppImage --no-sandbox &

   The trailing & detaches the process from the terminal.

8. Autostart: Autostart is enabled by default with a donethat.desktop file in your ~/.config/autostart. If you want to disable this, navigate to Setup > Autostart in the app.

Tray icon and AppIndicators

DoneThat runs in your system tray. On Ubuntu, enable Ubuntu AppIndicators in Gnome Extensions to see the tray icon.
