Configuration

Consult your distribution how to configure when installing a package.

When installing from source, you can customize which Liberty Deckplan Host to use, by passing the --enable-domain=DOMAIN option to configure.

Alternatively you can freely define the full URIs to use, by passing either of the options --enable-hub-uri=URI, --enable-chat-uri=URI, or --enable-social-uri=URI to configure.

Usage

Hub

• Click on the Hub icon to launch.
• Enter your credentials.
• Manage your account.

Chat

• Click on the Chat icon to launch.
• Enter your credentials.
• Start chatting!

Social

• Click on the Social icon to launch.
• Enter your credentials.
• Start posting!

Implementation

Web wrappers are currently implemented as GNOME Web applications, configured by debconf. See How do I define a system-wide web application? (GNOME Web FAQ) for details.

This implementation should work on any Debian-based distribution that includes GNOME Web.

Host compatibility

Clients should work on any host that follows the Liberty Deckplan. For example, any social server with the domain social.example.com and which supports /web/getting-started as a login path. The latter includes any Smilodon, Mastodon or Florence instance.
