Script for Creating a Desktop Entry in Debian/Ubuntu/Kali

[shreyasbapat]

We need to have a dektop entry for the app and that can be done by creating a file with extension .desktop and placing it in the system files. We can create a script on running which, it get's set up automatically.

I'd love to take this up! Should the script be part of the app itself, like a button, or a separate file?

Google for what a desktop entry script is like. It's not a button.

[akashdakoor]

I meant to ask, should there be an option to create the desktop entry in the app's GUI (as a button)? Like in PyCharm or any other JetBrains IDE.

It would be a plus!

@mehakjain26 Attempted it to a good level. I guess I will have to do the rest.
