MX Linux is based on Debian. I am not sure but the ubuntu's installation process might work.

  1. Install these using apt:
    sudo apt install build-essential libkf5config-dev libkdecorations2-dev libqt5x11extras5-dev qtdeclarative5-dev extra-cmake-modules libkf5guiaddons-dev libkf5configwidgets-dev libkf5windowsystem-dev libkf5coreaddons-dev libkf5iconthemes-dev gettext qt3d5-dev

  2. Then clone its github and compile it then install it:
    git clone --single-branch --depth=1 https://github.com/Luwx/Lightly.git
    cd Lightly && mkdir build && cd build
    cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib -DBUILD_TESTING=OFF ..
    make
    sudo make install

If you want to uninstall go to the build folder and:
sudo make uninstall
