Build Dependencies

To compile the stylesheet you'll need an implementation of SASS. Floating Dock supports dart-sass (sass), sassc, and ruby-sass. Every distro should have at least one of these implementations, we recommend using dart-sass (sass) or sassc over ruby-sass as ruby-sass is deprecated.

By default, Floating Dock will attempt to build with dart-sass. To change this behavior set the SASS environment variable to either sassc or ruby.

export SASS=sassc
# or...
export SASS=ruby

Building

Clone the repository or download the branch from github. A simple Makefile is included.

Next use make to install the extension into your home directory. A Shell reload is required Alt+F2 r Enter under Xorg or under Wayland you may have to logout and login. The extension has to be enabled with gnome-extensions-app (GNOME Extensions) or with dconf.

git clone https://github.com/fer-moreira/floating-dock.git
make
make install
