Build Process

Download this repository
cmake -B build -GNinja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug . ¹
cd build
ninja or your preferred build command ¹

Testing

Part of the build process is compiling tests. These are stored in the test directory and are mostly useful for checking internal behaviors.

I recommend using ninja for its "parallel by default" approach. However, any build system cmake understands should be fine. Just change -GNinja to your preference. ↩ ↩²
