Ticalc is built to be very small and minimalistic while still retaining aesthetics and functionality. The codebase is contained in only about 450 lines of code that are structured in 2 .c files.
The UI enigne/library used for the interface is libleif which is a minimalistic stb-like immediate mode UI library. (~3500 lines of code). The library uses OpenGL as a graphics backend and glfw is used for window handling.
The calculator is highly configurable and easily extendable due to its very small and readable codebase. As a sidenote, the entire application can be used by only using keyboard shortcuts and number input.
- Install the dependencies
On arch:
paru -S make gcc cglm libclipboard glfw ttf-roboto-monoOn debian:
Note: You will have to build libclipboard yourself. Follow the instructions here.
sudo apt-get install make gcc libglfw3 libglfw3-dev libcglm-dev fonts-roboto- Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/cococry/ticalc
cd ticalc- Build & Install
sudo make && sudo make installsudo make uninstallThere is a .desktop file that is automatically installed on install that you can access or just run the binary via terminal:
