Thank you for the contribution! Some feedback below, and also please ensure to rebase to have the maintainers commit come first.

@eclairevoyant I've made those changes. How can I rebase to have that commit come first?

Got a chance to build/run this now. With the changes below, it does build and run, and even connects to discord, though I don't see an actual overlay.

Is there a way you're testing this?

when I run the app, I jump into an empty discord call in a server. if it works, an icon with your avatar appears and will light up green as you talk. The other way to test is to run discover-overlay -c which opens the configuration menu

Thanks. The configuration menu works, but can't get the overlay to show up. Possibly a config issue on my side, but at least the program runs.

Can you squash the later commits into the 2nd one? (i.e. there should be only two commits, the maintainer commit and the init one.) Seems fine otherwise.

@eclairevoyant Done! Thanks for the help

Oh, after seeing the darwin failure - I guess this is only meant for Linux, can we set meta.platforms to lib.platforms.linux? I can merge directly after.
