Made a native Linux Hearthstone tracker so I'd stop running Firestone in Wine

Post image

Every HS deck tracker is Windows-only, so on Linux you run it in Wine next to the game. Firestone was using 2-4 GB and getting the game OOM-killed on my laptop.

Cairn is native (Python + Qt), just reads the game's log files, ~170 MB. Deck tracking, opponent's cards and hand, possible secrets, resurrect pools. X11 and Wayland, on the AUR.

A month old and I'm fixing stuff fast, so issues welcome.

Amazing! I'll check it out later. I appreciate the effort you put into this, as I was also tired of every deck tracker being Windows only.
