I hope this software is useful to those who feel they need it.
Available on codeberg: https://codeberg.org/MarshReaper/GuardianSecurityCenter/releases/latest
This is a client that makes use of the ClamAV packages available in most repositories. It is made to replace ClamTK and check that box for people wanting to use Linux.
Some features are still in development, so not for production use just yet. But, you can run a quick scan and update signatures which is basic enough for most users.
I saw a video DistroTube posted and it made me a bit confused. It was about the Kasperky being offered on Linux. If you have seen the comments you would understand.
Anyways, this had me remember people I know ask me about anti viruses on Linux. I tried ClamTK, but it is very unintuitive and has a somewhat broken workflow.
I hopped on Godot and searched for an image of a popular antivirus software. I then made the software using the pretty layout that many people are used to.
I learned some things about Godot and I hope others will too with this project. Enjoy!
Also, if anyone could help me find the best way to distribute this software that would be great! (flatpak? repos? it requires administrative privileges)
This looks really cool. The Windows Defender is not the most intuitive app to copy, but I really like that it exist. Maybe then you can recreate multiple “Skins” to copy other software such as Bitdefender, Avast or anything else!
just a heads up, you might’ve missed this as
- they shared their codeberg repo in the post
Indeed, it was hidden between the images and missed it, sorry!
no worries, it happens🤗
funnily enough you might want to consider requesting @popcar2@programming.dev to add this into GodotOS
It’s kinda surprising and remarkable that both projects are fully license compatible :D
Uses game engine to make a GUI
Erm what the sigma?
The Godot engine GUI is also made in Godot.
That’s not uncommon for many engines
Nice project! I also liked it’s not on Github.
Why? (Not sarcasm, just a noob learning)
Because Microsoft.
Fair enough! What’s your preferred alternative?

Self-hosted GitLab if you can, or my personal favourite Codeberg.
Thank you
No problem!
