- Guard Windows .rc file behind if(WIN32) so Linux builds aren't broken - Add x64-linux-debug and x64-linux-release CMake presets (no vcpkg dep) - Add shell.nix providing CMake, Qt 6.11.0, GCC 15, pkg-config, git - Update README to describe fork changes

This change adds the minimal infrastructure needed to build LogLite natively on Linux, without requiring vcpkg or Windows-specific tooling.
The existing codebase is already cross-platform Qt6 — only two
#ifdefguards were platform-specific (Windows Registry dark-theme detection and a drive-letter path regex), and the#elsebranches already handle Linux correctly. No C++ changes were needed.Changes:
.rcresource file behindif(WIN32)so it doesn't get compiled on Linux (it includes<windows.h>)shell.nixproviding an isolated Nix dev shell with CMake, Qt 6.11.0, GCC 15, pkg-config, git, and all Qt build tools (moc/uic/rcc)Building on any Linux machine with Nix installed:
nix-shell shell.nix
cmake --preset x64-linux-release
cmake --build .cmake-build-x64-linux-release -j$(nproc)
On non-Nix Linux, install qt6-base-dev and build directly with CMake.
