- Install ressources such as a .desktop files, icons, etc.

 ## Manually
 For compilation, you will need:
 
+- Meson
 - An up-to-date rust toolchain
 - `libclang-3.7` or higher
 - `gtk-4.0` and `pipewire-0.3` development headers

 in the repository root.
-The resulting binary will be at `target/release/helvum`.
+This will install the compiled project files into `/usr/local`.
