This is a graphical browser for the decentralized content marketplace provided by the LBRY protocol. It is essentially the lbry daemon bundled with a UI using Electron.
We provide installers for Windows, macOS, and Debian-based Linux.

This repo uses submodules, so clone it using --recursive.
The lbry daemon needs to be installed along with pyinstaller. You also need to be able to build the lbry-web-ui, so have node, webpack, etc installed.
run ./build.sh
This builds the UI assets and puts them into app/dist. It also builds app/dist/lbrynet-daemon.
./node_modules/.bin/electron app
We use electron-builder to create distributable packages, which is run by calling:
node_modules/.bin/build -p never
This project has currently only been worked on in Linux and macOS. If you are on Windows, you can checkout out the build steps in appveyor.yml and probably figure out something from there.
