Running it without installing it
You can run UberWriter with ./uberwriter.in
without installing it in the system,
but you'll need to install and compile the schemas before:
# sudo cp data/de.wolfvollprecht.UberWriter.gschema.xml /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/de.wolfvollprecht.UberWriter.gschema.xml
# sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas
Building a flatpak package
It's also possible to build, run and debug a flatpak package. You'll need flatpak-builder for this:
$ cd build-aux/flatpak
$ flatpak-builder --force-clean --install --user _build de.wolfvollprecht.UberWriter.json
