Setting up

Setting up nekocord development

To get started, clone the nekocord repository by running the following command:

Terminal window
# Clone via SSH
git clone git@github.com:nekocord-mod/nekocord.git
# or if you prefer HTTPS
git clone https://github.com/nekocord-mod/nekocord.git

After cloning, you’ll want to cd into the nekocord directory and run the following command to install the dependencies:

Terminal window
pnpm install

Now you can run the following command to build nekocord:

Terminal window
pnpm build

And to install nekocord, run

Terminal window
pnpm inject

Afterwards, fully close Discord (check Task Manager / Activity Monitor / System Monitor and your system tray!) and reopen it. Then, check DevTools to check if nekocord is running as a dev build. You’ll see a message similar to the follwing:
