About
ClamUI is a modern Linux desktop application that provides a user-friendly graphical interface for the ClamAV antivirus command-line tool. Built with GTK4 and libadwaita for a native GNOME appearance.
Features:
- Select files or directories to scan using the native file dialog
- Background scanning keeps the UI responsive during long scans
- Clear, readable display of scan results
- Graceful handling when ClamAV is not installed
- Modern Adwaita styling with proper GNOME integration
