Moves into the project folder you just downloaded.

2. Official Install Script

Easy Recommended
Prerequisites
  • Homebrew A package manager for macOS/Linux.

3. CMake

Medium
Prerequisites
  • Git Needed to download the project code from GitHub.
  • CMake The tool used to generate build configuration.
  • C/C++ 컴파일러 Windows needs Visual Studio (Community edition, free), macOS needs Xcode Command Line Tools, Linux needs the gcc/g++ package.
cmake ..

Analyzes the source code and generates build configuration files (must be run inside the build folder).

βœ… Check that an executable was created inside the build folder, then run it directly (e.g. ./build/app_name).

4. Make

Medium
Prerequisites
  • Git Needed to download the project code from GitHub.
  • Make Usually pre-installed on Linux/macOS. On Windows, install separately (e.g. via MSYS2 or WSL).
make

Compiles the code based on the generated build configuration to produce an executable.

βœ… If it finishes without errors, it worked. Try running the generated executable directly.
