Build

refer to .travis.yml file

Config

run the program to generate a config file in ~/.config/wanikani_reviews_icon/conf.json, then enter your API key in that file.

You can also modify the config file to change what browser is opened when clicking the icon. By default it uses xdg-open to determine which browser to use, but you could change it to directly open "firefox" or whatever you like.

Once you've added your API key, configuration is complete. Move the program somewhere logical like /usr/bin and set it up to run in the background when you log into your computer.
