Brightness Controller

A dead simple GTK app that controls brightness via a "slider" widget for my Dell laptop that has Intel graphics.

Build Instructions

This project requires a few dependencies be install in order to compile it:

 Meson - Build System
 gtkmm - GTK GUI toolkit library.

1. Git clone project
2. $ cd into the src directory
3. $ meson setup builddir
4. $ cd into builddir
5. $ meson compile
6. Launch the app: $ ./brightness_controller

You will need to run the binary as root because it needs to write to the /sys/backlight/ file.
