Mergist

Cross‑platform desktop app that turns a GitHub repository into a Markdown export (code and issues) with progress tracking, theming, and built‑in localization.

Demo

Features

• Convert repositories to a single Markdown export with optional separators and filename listings.
• Export GitHub issues with configurable filename formatting.
• Live progress and tokenization status with rich toasts.
• Theme toggle (light/dark/system) and locale switcher (English, Русский, Português do Brasil).
• Tauri v2 desktop shell with Svelte 5 (runes), Vite, Tailwind CSS, and shadcn-svelte UI kit.

Requirements

• Node.js 20+ and npm
• Rust toolchain for Tauri (https://tauri.app/start/prerequisites/)
• Tauri CLI installed once (e.g. cargo install tauri-cli or npm add -D @tauri-apps/cli)

Getting started

npm install
cargo tauri dev      # full Tauri app (backend + UI)

Frontend-only dev server (Vite):

npm run dev:ui

Scripts

• cargo tauri dev — Tauri dev (backend + UI)
• npm run dev — same as above via npm script
• npm run dev:ui — Vite dev server only
• npm run build — production desktop build via Tauri
• npm run build:ui — build frontend only (dist/)
• npm run check — Svelte type checks
• npm run lint — ESLint/Svelte linting

Internationalization

Locale files live in src/lib/i18n/locales (en, ru, pt-BR). Switch languages from the header globe menu. New strings should be added to all locale JSONs to keep parity.

Project structure (high level)

• src/ — Svelte UI
• src/lib — components, stores, i18n, utilities
• src-tauri/ — Rust side (commands, config)

Acknowledgements

• Thanks to Puter-Apps/repo-to-markdown for the inspiration.
• Desktop shell: Tauri.
• UI: Svelte, icons from Lucide, components via shadcn-svelte.
