## Development Setup

> [!NOTE]
> **For Linux:** On Wayland, the `ydotoold` daemon must be running and your user must be part of the `ydotool` group. Additionally, some native dependencies are required : install them via your package manager (see [`shell.nix`](shell.nix) for the list), or use `nix-shell` directly.

> **For Linux**
>
> Rein uses a virtual input device (`/dev/uinput`) for keyboard and mouse injection.
>
> On Wayland, screen capture requires a working PipeWire + XDG Desktop Portal setup (typically provided by your desktop environment).
>
> Your user must also have permission to access `/dev/uinput`. A common setup is:
>
> ```bash
> sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/99-rein.rules <<EOF
> KERNEL=="uinput", MODE="0660", GROUP="input"
> EOF
>
> sudo usermod -aG input $USER
