Get Himawaripy

Himawaripy has been tested in a range of desktop environments, including Unity, LXDE, i3, MATE, and others. It is free and open source software, but overall installation and configuration is not easy.

All the instructions for installing and setting up the application can be found on the project's Github home page (hint: there is no one-click installation feature).
