```

## Manual Installation
You can clone the repo and build from the source code
```sh
git clone https://github.com/mustafasalih1993/rsblocks
```
build with **cargo**
```sh
cargo build --release
```

```

you good to go now and can run `rsblocks` from your terminal or put that in your `.xinitrc`

**rsblocks** will try to read the file `~/.config/rsblocks/rsblocks.yml`, if it does not exist, it will load the defaults.

create the directory
```sh
mkdir ~/.config/rsblocks
```

```sh
cp ./rsblocks.yml ~/.config/rsblocks/rsblocks.yml
```
