LinuxED

LinuxED is an alternative installer for EnhancedDiscord that works on Linux. This project is not affiliated with Discord, or EnhancedDiscord in any way. I made this while learning Python and I'm aware of how messy, inconsistent, and poorly coded this script looks.

Operating systems supported

LinuxED supports most major distributions of Linux, MacOS, and even Windows.
It also supports all versions of Discord (PTB, Stable, Canary, etc.)

MacOS Support

If you wish to use this on MacOS you'll first need to download Python 3 via Brew.
After installing Brew, enter brew install python3 in a terminal, then follow the installation guide below.

Features

• Custom index.js location
• EnhancedDiscord updater (this does update ED)
• LinuxED updater (this does not update ED, it updates the LinuxED script)
• Automates all EnhancedDiscord installation on Linux, MacOS, and Windows.

Requirements

You will need Python's distutils, which most commonly has the package name python3-distutils
To install Python's distutils on Debian or any Debian derivatives (Ubuntu, Linux Mint) do sudo apt install python3-distutils

Installation and Usage

1. Git clone this repo: git clone https://github.com/Cr3atable/LinuxED/ in a terminal.
2. cd into the newly cloned repo: cd LinuxED
3. Execute the Python script: python3 LinuxED.py and follow the instructions.
4. Restart Discord entirely. That's it! EnhancedDiscord is now installed.
