A Java implementation for Desktop Entry Files in Linux

Java 14 and up

Add the JAR file to your project.

In Gradle for example: implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: '*.jar')

Create a new DesktopEntryFile object with new DesktopEntryFile(). Use methods like .withIcon() to set the path to the icon. When you are done use .safeToFile() to generate the .desktop file.
