It also offers a level of performance that exceeds that of Dash, when taking advantage of Ion's features.

Build Dependencies
If building the GTK front end, you will be required to install the development dependencies for GTK, usually named libgtk-3-dev
. No other dependencies are required to build the CLI or GTK front ends, besides Rust's cargo
utility.
For those who need to vendor Cargo's crate dependencies which are fetched from Crates.io, you will need to install cargo-vendor, and then run make vendor
.
Installation Instructions
A makefile is included for simply building and installing all required files into the system. You may either build both the CLI and GTK workspace, just the CLI workspace, or just the GTK workspace.
make cli && sudo make install-cli
will build and install just the CLI workspacemake gtk && sudo make install-gtk
will build and install just the GTK workspacemake && sudo make install
will build and install both the CLI and GTK workspaces
