This is the system tray application and user interface for controlling a local ZeroTier service on Windows, macOS, and (soon) Linux systems.
Only macOS and Windows are currently supported. Linux may build but there are still outstanding issues. We're working on full Linux support at least for popular Linux desktop environments that support relatively standard tray application APIs.
- Xcode with standard command line tools and SDKs.
- Rust (and cargo) with targets
x86_64-apple-darwin
andaarch64-apple-darwin
installed to enable universal binaries to be built. - The Meson/Ninja build system (for libui-ng).
To build on macOS you should just be able to type make
from the project root. If all the necessary dependencies are present it should build a ZeroTier.app
application in the current directory.
- Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 with both 32-bit and 64-bit X86 targets and with appropriate desktop application SDKs.
- Rust (and cargo) with targets
x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
andi686-pc-windows-msvc
installed. - The Meson/Ninja build system (for libui-ng).
- GCC/G++ with support for both 64-bit and 32-bit builds. Yes, we need both Visual Studio and GCC with GNU make.
To build native applications for Windows, just type make
. This assumes that GNU make, GCC, and Cargo are in your path. The result will be two native EXEs in target\x86_64-pc-windows-msvc\release
and target\i686-pc-windows-msvc\release
. We plan to add native support for Windows on ARM64 soon, both for this UI application and for ZeroTier itself.
