Mangos Dependencies
------------
*Mangos* stands on the shoulders of well-known Open Source
libraries, and a few awesome, but less known libraries to prevent us from
inventing the wheel again.

*Please note that Linux and Mac OS X users should install packages using
their systems package management instead of source packages.*

* **MySQL**: to store content, and user data, we rely on
  [MySQL][1]/[MariaDB][2] to handle data.
* **Recast**: in order to create navigation data from the client's map files,
  we use [Recast][5] to do the dirty work. It provides functions for
  rendering, pathing, etc.
* **G3D**: the [G3D][6] engine provides the basic framework for handling 3D
  data, and is used to handle basic map data.
* **libmpq**: [libmpq][7] provides an abstraction layer for reading from the
  client's data files.
* **Zlib**: [Zlib][12] ([Zlib for Windows][10]) provides compression algorithms
  used in both MPQ archive handling and the client/server protocol.
* **Bzip2**: [Bzip2][13] ([Bzip2 for Windows][11]) provides compression
  algorithms used in MPQ archives.
* **OpenSSL**: [OpenSSL][8] ([OpenSSL for Windows][14]) provides encryption
  algorithms used when authenticating clients.
* **Lua**: [Lua 5.2][15] ([Lua 5.2 for Windows][16]) provides a convenient, fast
  scripting environment, which allows us to make live changes to scripted
  content.

*Recast*, *G3D* and *libmpq* are included in the *Mangos* distribution as
we rely on specific versions. *libmpq* is to be replaced with *stormlib* shortly.

Optional dependencies
---------------------

* **Doxygen**: if you want to export HTML or PDF formatted documentation for the
  *Mangos* API, you should install [Doxygen][9].
