"Manfred" is an over-engineered desktop pet. All you need is a sprite sheet and a simple config.
when executed, the binary will try to load the config from a file called config.yaml from the current working directory. This is where you define the location of your sprite sheet, dimensions, animations and more. Right now, looking at the example cat config located in example_configs is probably the easiest way to get started.

On linux, depending on what window manager / compositor you use, you might have to add a few window rules.
Here are the rules I use for Hyprland:
windowrule=noborder,title:^(Manfred)$
windowrule=xray off,title:^(Manfred)$
windowrule=noblur,title:^(Manfred)$
