Step 1: Fork the Repo

Click the Fork button at the top right of this page to copy this repository to your own GitHub account.

Step 2: Configure Your URL

1. Open the file src-tauri/tauri.conf.json.
2. Find the windows section (around line 13).
3. Change the "url" to your own website:

   "windows": [
     {
       "title": "CoG Console",
       "label": "main",
       "width": 1024,
