Additionally include the latest Windows Sdk-binary folder in your PATH-environment variable:

Building

Run mvn verify -DskipTests -DskipSign to build without running any tests and skip codesign. Find build artifacts in

Run with -Pinstaller to build installer packages with build artifacts

macOS

Active the sandboxing profile with -Psandbox to apply sandbox entitlements com.apple.security.app-sandbox.

Windows

You will run into warnings from MSBuild/WiX that are unrelated to how Cyberduck is built. You may safely ignore them.

Debugging
