Tiny Core Extensions > TCE Corepure64

Creating Delta_Chat.tcz

(1/2) > >>

Sasha:
Good evening!  (In advance, I apologize for my English.) I want to install Delta Chat is a messaging app. APPS doesn't have it. So I need to create the extension myself. I understood correctly that I first need to download the sources, for example from here: Snap-Source: links://github.com/nbuechner/deltachat-snap And then put it in the home/deltachat directory and compile. Another question is which chapter of the book "Into the Core A look at Tiny Core Linux" Lauri Kasanen et al should do this?:
* -14. Creating a personal (data) extension or
* -15. Creating an extension

gadget42:
is this the "delta chat" you are referring to?

naturally f-droid is for android but i like reading their descriptions
(especially all the different permissions, scary!)

Sasha:
Yes, this is the messenger that I wrote about above. Here is the desktop version on linux: links://github.com/deltachat/deltachat-desktop I downloaded the archive deltachat-desktop-main.zip. Do I have to compile deltachat.tcz for chapter 14 or 15 of the book?

Leee:
You want chapter 15.
Chapter 14 is about building an extension with (static) data files, which keeps them out of your backup.
Chapter 15 is about building an application extension (like delta_chat).
