+# Postsack Native
+
+This crate embeds `ps-core`, `ps-database` and `ps-importer` to build a native version of Postsack for macOS, Linux and Windows.
+
+A native version can be run via `cargo run` or `cargo build`, however a proper application requires installing [cargo bundle](https://github.com/burtonageo/cargo-bundle):
+
+``` sh
+cargo install cargo-bundle
+```
+
+## macOS
+
+For macOS, there is a script that will build a fat binary (with aarch64 and x86_64) into a macOS `Postsack.app` bundle.
+Just running `cargo bundle --release` will also create an app bundle, but it will only contain the host architecture.
+
+``` sh
+./build_mac.sh
+```
+
+## Linux
+
+Depending on your Linux installation, you will need to install a couple of dependencies:
+
+### Fedora Based
+
+``` sh
+sudo dnf install @development-tools glib cairo-devel pango-devel gdk-pixbux2-devel atk-devel gtk3 gtk3-devel libsqlite3x-devel
+```
+
+### Ubuntu based
+
+``` sh
+sudo apt-get install libxcb-render0-dev libxcb-shape0-dev libxcb-xfixes0-dev libspeechd-dev libxkbcommon-dev libssl-dev libsqlite3-dev
+```
+
+### Building
+
+``` sh
+./build_linux.sh
+```
+
+## Windows
+
+Building for Windows works but doesn't create a proper application (e.g. with an icon) and also doesn't create a proper installer.
+
+- [cargo bundle](https://github.com/burtonageo/cargo-bundle/issues/77) doesn't currently work on Windows
+- [cargo wix should work](https://github.com/volks73/cargo-wix), but I could not get it to work
+- `cargo build --release` works, but then the binary has no icon.
+
+Running `build_windows.bat` therefore will currently just run `cargo build --release`
+
+``` cmd
+build_windows.bat
+```
