warmaster , to Open Source in Stirling-PDF: Locally hosted web application that allows you to perform various operations on PDF files

I use this, hands down the best PDF editor on Linux.

For creating forms, filling and signing use:

https://www.docuseal.co/

Inkscape can do the rest.

I needed to write in fields of a pdf and ran this quickly only to find out there wasnt such a feature. If I missed something let me know, it looks like great software.

I just looked into this on my own install, it isn't super straightforward. The "View PDF" tool lets you annotate documents and fill in fields.

jasep , to Open Source in Stirling-PDF: Locally hosted web application that allows you to perform various operations on PDF files

This sounds great. Anyone have experience using it?

gray22 ,

I've used it a bit, mostly for merging/splitting some pdf files. Haven't delved much into the advanced features. Its been flawless for those tasks. It was also super simple to setup.

I use it a lot myself, started hosting during Christmas, and have since been one of my more used tools. And it's rock solid too. Has loads of features and is easy to use. Can't recommend it enough.

jasep ,

Sounds great, I installed it last night and I'm looking forward to using it 👍🏻

smeg , to Fediverse in Open-Source, Language-Agnostic Mutation Testing Tool Using LLM Agents

Mutation testing is a cool concept, but what's it got to do with the fediverse?

Shame you can't try.before you buy, although even that doesn't sit well in an open source, donation fed space..🤷🏻‍♂️

You can compile it from source.

If I can find a decent guide I might give it go..

I just opened it in android studio and clicked build.

fisco ,
@fisco@lemmy.ml avatar

That flew right over 😅, what did you actually open...

olorin99 ,
@olorin99@kbin.earth avatar

Sorry yeah I've gotten so used to building android apps its probably more complicated than I think.

Open android studio. Select new project from version control. Enter the url of the github and click enter. This will download the source code and open it to view/edit. Android studio should then prepare dependencies etc, it will say something like "building gradle" in the bottom corner. Wait for that to finish then in the toolbar at the top of the screen there is a dropdown labeled build which has the different build options. There should be one called "build apk" this will build the app.

Now that I've written this out it does seem more complicated that I thought.

Wow, thank you so much!, that's great, nice concise instructions, something I can certainly follow.. Will have go tomorrow as I'm just about to turn in...
Thanks again 👍🏼

noodlejetski ,

whoa, I installed Android Studio, did all that, waited a bunch and it... worked? just like that? is that what you computer people do with computers at work? do I apply for a six figure job now?

noodlejetski ,

Shame you can't try.before you buy

or at least buy it outside Play Store.

Thank you! 🙂

This is a very cool project, but it would be cool to see it all in JS / client side instead of depending on a server-side Java powered component.

ericjmorey , to Linux in I wrote an interactive TUI app that gives a brief tour of the `GNU awk` command for beginners
@ericjmorey@programming.dev avatar

It's strange to me people refer to the awk command rather than the AWK language.

Andromxda , to Technology in Github: Nintendo Submit DMCA Notices to Yuzu Forks
@Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Btw Suyu hosts a full backup of Yuzu (and other stuff like Ryujinx or Dolphin in case it gets taken down at some point) on their Forgejo instance

It's also available via Tor as an onion site: http://suyudev2qxj5x7mroamgwf4hqunz4pups27z2kl77x4ioqhh5yhpshad.onion/

SmoochyPit , to Linux Gaming in Vesktop 1.5.2 greatly improves screensharing on Linux

Gonna give this a try! I’ve been jumping between clients on my Hyprland desktop… rn I can’t do global PTT on any third-party apps, despite Hyprland passing the input through to the app exclusively. I haven’t even looked at Vesktop, though!

d3Xt3r Mod , to Linux in Does the legacy of AppOutlet live on?

You won't find any alternatives because Flatpak has won the war. Pretty much everyone (except Canonical) hates Snap and avoids it like the plague, and AppImages have significantly dropped in popularity amongst users due to the rise of Flatpak, and the various advantage it has over AppImages. So you're left with only Flatpak/Flathub basically.

guttermonk OP ,
@guttermonk@lemmy.ml avatar

In that case, any one stop shop on Arch that will search the Arch repo, the AUR, and Flathub?

hallettj , to Linux in Rofi as primary menu — recommendations?
@hallettj@leminal.space avatar

I guess it's not relevant for your setup, but I like rofi because there is a fork that works in Wayland, and it's the only Wayland window switcher I have found that isn't tied to a specific window manager.

halm OP ,
@halm@leminal.space avatar

Oh no, I'm not Wayland ready yet. I still use Openbox for crying out loud 🤣 Tried and true still works for me but I'll give Rofi a shot!

mranderson17 ,

I like tofi as a wayland alternative. Unfortunately like so many of these projects it seems to be somewhat recently unmaintained.

barcaxavi , to Android in [ANNOUNCEMENT] Response Regarding Google PlayStore App Updates · termux/termux-app · Discussion #4000 · GitHub

The main takeaway for termux users: if you have it installed from GitHub/F-droid, be sure not to update the app from the Play Store in the coming days/weeks as versioning hasn't been significantly changed for that release yet.

mox , to KDE in fooyin: A foobar2000 clone written with Qt6

Neat. Where does the name come from? What does it mean?

leopold ,

The Foo is obviously from Foobar. Google translate says "fuyin" is "copy" in Chinese, which I guess could make sense since it's a copy of foobar2000. It also says "fooyin" is "I'm sorry" in Somali, which is probably a coincidence because that makes no sense.

EDIT: One of the screenshots in the README is in Chinese so yeah that's probably it.

ludouzi ,

Very close! Name is based on the Chinese 福音 (fúyīn) meaning good news, with foo coming from foobar as you correctly deduced.
