Installation

Make sure you have a working Go environment. See the install instructions.

Dependencies

Before you can build Chirp you need to install the Go/Qt bindings.

Building Chirp!

git clone https://github.com/muesli/chirp.git
qtdeploy build desktop chirp/

Run it

./chirp/deploy/linux/chirp

Config

As of now you will need to create your own Twitter app & key to use Chirp. You can do this on https://dev.twitter.com/. When you run Chirp for the first time, it will create an empty config file chirp.conf for you. Just edit it and enter your consumer key and accesstoken.
