Sticky is a note-taking app for the Linux desktop that simulates traditional "sticky note" style stationery on your desktop. Some of its features include basic text formatting (bold, italics, monospaced, etc.), spell-checking, a tray icon for controlling note visibility, color notes, manual and automatic backups, and a manager to organize your notes into groups. Sticky is written in Python, and uses the GTK3 toolkit

# Clone this repo:
git clone https://github.com/collinss/sticky.git

# Enter the folder:
cd sticky

# Try to build. If this fails, it's probably due to missing dependencies.
# Take note of these packages, install them using apt-get:
dpkg-buildpackage --no-sign

# Once that succeeds, install:
cd ..
sudo dpkg -i sticky*.deb

# If this fails, make note of missing runtime dependencies (check list below),
# install them, repeat previous command (apt-get install -f may also work).

sudo cp -r usr/* /usr/
