The next part of this project is to update heckimp/PIKA heckimp to deal with new changes in the upstream codebase and release stable versions that everyone can use!

Hey! Remember when y'all funded the first versions of heckimp and PIKA? That was awesome and now we're back with part 2!

Fundraise the project! https://chuffed.org/project/157315

Once funded, we'll be updating heckimp and PIKA with the gnuIMP 3.0 update, as well as making Linux and Windows packages so PIKApp will be easy for everyone to install!

Hopefully by the end of this month we'll have #PIKApp based on GnuImp in the 2.10 series and builds for Windows and Linux, if the champion migraine season backs off a little  

Should be straight forward to tweak #heckimp to work with the codebase and make a branding package for this series. We'd been previously working on PikAPP from the 2.99/3.0 development codebase, which is our main target but getting something to everyone sooner is our current priority!

Got to use #PIKApp (a GnuImp rebrand using our tool #HeckImp) to finalize and upload a new thing to inprint. its very awesome not to hafta use gnu imp

prints and stickers too

I have cut a release of #PIKApp ! Including some builds on modernish debian installations. It's not exactly for the faint of heart, but much easier than compiling yourself (they are just tarballs of the /usr/local of the build machine). Works on two computers so far so if you wanna give it a go and don't mind your /usr/local having some stuff in it feel free to hit us up!

#heckimp

PIKApp

PIKA (Photo and Image Kooker Application) is a fork of Gnu Image Manipulation Program rebranded using our Heckimp tool.

writing a bash script to compile #PikAPP has changed my life, compiling on any deb based os that i can get a docker image for is amazing

#heckimp 

Workin on #PIKApp (our GnuImp rebrand) builds on common debian-based linuces. Hopefully I can get a tarball you can just untar on your machine and it'll work, we'll see! After that maybe .debs and maybe flatpaks maybe. I worked on the windows build for like a couple hours but my windows vm is kerploded because it has like three different incompatble cygwins on it so that's a project for another day, or another person. Other osen too cuz it's just a bash script.
