  • Included two options in the script:

    1. Installation of Splashkit only.

    2. Installation of Splashkit along with Visual Studio Code setup.

  • Documented the usage and requirements in the README.md file.

Details:

  • script2.bash: This script automates the installation process by downloading and setting up Splashkit and necessary native tools on MSYS/MinGW environments. Users are presented with two options:

    1. script1: Install Splashkit only.

    2. script2: Install Splashkit along with Visual Studio Code setup.

  • README.md: Updated the README file with detailed instructions on how to use the script, system requirements, and additional setup steps for Visual Studio Code integration.

To-Do:

  • Test the script thoroughly on various MSYS/MinGW environments to ensure compatibility and reliability.

Few typos and some questions. But the script runs successfully with the information from the readme file.

@beastbybirth2 - You also need to make sure to run the 4 commands from the CONTRIBUTING.md file (https://github.com/thoth-tech/documentation/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#lint-checks) to ensure the workflows won't fail.
