This crate helps you to detect the current desktop environment.
It was inspired by the [`detectDE`](https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xdg/xdg-utils/tree/scripts/xdg-utils-common.in?h=fa5805559ad27382ef62110cb23e67d6eb649030#n270)
function from _xdg-util_.

## Installation

Run the following command in your project:
```
cargo add detect-desktop-environment
```

## Usage

```rust
use detect_desktop_environment::DesktopEnvironment;

fn main() {
    match DesktopEnvironment::detect() {
        Some(de) => println!("detected desktop environment: {de:?}"),
        None => println!("failed to detect desktop environment"),
    }
}
```

This library exposes two symbols: the `detect` function and it returns value: the
`DesktopValue` enum. All the variants are listed below in the "Supported environments"
section.
