Community packages

Below you can find unofficial packages created by the community. They are not officially supported by us, so before reporting issues, please first confirm the issue also happens on official builds. When in doubt, consult with their packager first. The flatpak and AppImage should work on any distro that supports them, so I recommend you just use those instead!

• Arch Linux: Vesktop on the Arch user repository
• NixOS: https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Discord#Vesktop
• Slackware: Vesktop on the SlackBuilds
• Windows - Scoop: https://scoop.sh/#/apps?q=Vesktop

Building from Source

You need to have the following dependencies installed:

• Git
• Node.js
• pnpm: npm install --global pnpm

Packaging will create builds in the dist/ folder

git clone https://github.com/Vencord/Vesktop
cd Vesktop

# Install Dependencies
pnpm i

# Either run it without packaging
pnpm start

# Or package (will build packages for your OS)
pnpm package

# Or only build the Linux Pacman package
pnpm package --linux pacman

# Or package to a directory only
pnpm package:dir
