A mostly Fennel-based graphical environment tailored for the Pinephone
(other Linux-based mobile devices exist). The principles we aspire to are
* "habitable software" - build the system in such a way that a
technically competent user may change it to serve their needs,
potentially even in ways that weren't anticipated in the original
design. Emacs has this quality.
* optimised for touchscreens. My phone has no hardware keyboard and few
hardware buttons, let's play to its strengths instead of compensating for
its weaknesses
As of 2022 these principles are more aspirational than actual.
## Running it
$ nix-shell build.nix
nix-shell$ lua -e 'os.execute("kiwmi -c init.lua")'
This is suboptimally hairy, at least for the moment: Nix makes a
wrapper script for the Lua executable that has appropriate `LUA_PATH`
and `LUA_CPATH` settings, but it doesn't do the same for kiwmi
