- To compile on Linux, install `gcc` and run `./build.sh`.
- For compiling on Windows, there are a few options:
- To compile a native Windows binary: install [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/) and open the "MSYS2 MINGW64" shell. From there, run `pacman -Sy mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc`, navigate to this project's directory, and run `./build.sh`.
- To compile a MSYS2-linked binary: install [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/), and open the "MSYS2 MSYS" shell. From there, install `gcc` (run `pacman -Sy gcc`), navigate to this project's directory and run `./build.sh`.
- To compile a native Windows binary: install [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/) and open the "MSYS2 MINGW64" shell. From there, run `pacman -Sy mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc`, navigate to this project's directory, and run `./build.sh`.
- To compile a native 32-bit binary (compatible with Windows 95/98, but why would you ever want that), use the same steps above, except with `pacman -Sy mingw-w64-cross-gcc` and `./build.sh --9x`.
- To compile a MSYS2-linked binary: install [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org/), and open the "MSYS2 MSYS" shell. From there, install `gcc` (run `pacman -Sy gcc`), navigate to this project's directory and run `./build.sh`.
- To compile and run a Linux binary from Windows: install WSL, and from there install `gcc` and run `./build.sh` in this project's directory.
- To target an ESP variant, set up a PlatformIO project (select the ESP-IDF framework, **not Arduino**) and clone this repository on top of it. See **Configuration** below for further steps. For better performance, consider changing the clock speed and enabling compiler optimizations. If you don't know how to do this, there are plenty of resources online.
