This commit introduces a Qt-based desktop application for Linux that acts as a graphical user interface for the existing `kotatsu-dl` command-line tool. The new Qt application provides a simple interface to: - Enter a manga URL. - Trigger the download process. - View the output and progress from `kotatsu-dl`. Additionally, a GitHub Actions workflow has been added to automate the build, packaging, and release process. The workflow performs the following steps: 1. Builds the `kotatsu-dl` executable JAR. 2. Compiles the Qt application. 3. Packages the application and the JAR into a self-contained AppImage using `linuxdeployqt`. 4. Uploads the AppImage as a build artifact on every push to the `main` branch. 5. Creates a new GitHub Release and attaches the AppImage when a new tag is pushed.
This commit addresses two issues: 1. The GitHub Actions workflow was configured to trigger on the `main` branch, but the repository's default branch is `master`. The workflow file has been updated to trigger on `master`. 2. The `README.md` file was outdated and did not reflect the addition of the new Qt desktop application. Changes in this commit: - Modified `.github/workflows/build-release.yml` to trigger on pushes to the `master` branch. - Updated `README.md` to include: - A clear distinction between the desktop application and the command-line tool. - Installation instructions for the Qt AppImage. - Links to download the AppImage from both GitHub Releases (for stable versions) and Actions artifacts (for the latest builds).
