### 🧪 Package Testing Status
## 🧪 Package Testing Status
Though NeoDLP is supported on most platforms but not all packages are tested on all platforms, to save some time (and brain cells) and ship the software as fast as possible! Current test coverage is given below. So, untested packages may have issues, test it yourself and always feel free to report any issue on github.

> If you have access to any of the untested systems listed below, you can test the packages there and send me the test results via creating an github issue! (that would be super helpful actualy 😊)

## 💝 Support the Development
NeoDLP is and will be always FREE to Use and Open-Sourced for Everyone. On the other hand the developent process of NeoDLP takes lots of time, effort and even sometimes money! So, if you appriciate my work and have the ability to donate, then please consider supporting the development by donating (even a very small donation matters and helps NeoDLP to be a better product!) Your support is the key to my motivation...🤗

### 🛠️ Contributing / Building from Source
## 🛠️ Contributing / Building from Source
Want to be part of this? Feel free to contribute...!! Pull Requests are always welcome...!! (^_^) Follow these simple steps to start building:
* Make sure to install [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install), [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en), [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads) and [Git-LFS](https://git-lfs.com/) before proceeding.
* Install [Tauri Prerequisites](https://v2.tauri.app/start/prerequisites/) for your OS / platform
1. Fork this repo in your github account.
2. Git clone the forked repo in your local machine.
2. Git clone the forked repo in your local machine. (**NOTE:** I've recently switched from GitHub LFS Server to my own self-hosted LFS Server! Cause GitHub LFS Storage is too expencive for me and NeoDLP requires a lots of LFS bandwidth. So, If you currently clone the repo it will clone the codebase but not the LFS Objects, If you want to clone the LFS Objects unfortunately you have to ask me for auth credentials - which will be only provided to you in certain conditions)
3. Create a git branch (related to the feature you are working on) (Optional - Recommended)
4. Install Node.js dependencies: `npm install`
5. Run development / build process
> ⚠️ **IMPORTANT:** Make sure to run the build command once before running the dev command for the first time to avoid compile time errors
