Hi, this project seems very useful! however:
1. your install instructions should be present in the readme aswell
2. the shortcut to use the app is alt + space, NOT alt + enter... i spent a lot of time trying to figure this one out
Fix these issues, resubmit, and you should be good!
For any questions, DM @sl4shed on Slack or drop a message in #ask-the-shipwrights.

Hey there, this project looks pretty cool, however, the download instructions are not correct. This looks to be an electron app, and it's made for windows, however, the download instructions tell me to run sudo apt upgrade.
If it's an electron app, you can just build it as a binary release and upload it to github releases. Do this, reship, and you should be good!

Hey willexists,
It would seem as though there are no releases on your github page so I was unable to follow through with the instructions on your site to download it. Additionally, it would also be a good idea to put the download instructions on the README as well. Feel free to DM me on slack (@blowupthenoobs) if you have further questions, want clarification, or when you fix that little issue and are ready to reship.

this is a little app i made to solve some problems i’ve had with windows. the file system is too slow, it takes too long to get to the calculator app (exit your app, go to the start menu, search it up, open it, type stuff in…), and spotlight search not being a thing sadly. so i made spotlight search. yay! also you can install the app everything https://www.voidtools.com/support/everything/ to speed up the app, it uses some libraries from it to speed things up :D
