## Building SDL
## Building SDL on Windows
Assuming the source tree of SDL is located at `~/sdl`,
this will configure and build SDL in the `~/build` directory:
Assuming you're in the SDL source directory, building and installing to C:/SDL can be done with:
```sh
cmake -S ~/sdl -B ~/build
cmake --build ~/build
cmake -S . -B build
cmake --build build --config RelWithDebInfo
cmake --install build --config RelWithDebInfo --prefix C:/SDL
```
Installation can be done using:
## Building SDL on UNIX
SDL will build with very few dependencies, but for full functionality you should install the packages detailed in [README-linux.md](README-linux.md).
Assuming you're in the SDL source directory, building and installing to /usr/local can be done with:
```sh
cmake --install ~/build --prefix /usr/local # '--install' requires CMake 3.15, or newer
cmake -S . -B build
cmake --build build
sudo cmake --install build --prefix /usr/local
```
This will install SDL to /usr/local.
## Building SDL on macOS
### Building SDL tests
Assuming you're in the SDL source directory, building and installing to ~/SDL can be done with:
```sh
cmake -S . -B build -DSDL_FRAMEWORK=ON -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES="arm64;x86_64"
cmake --build build
cmake --install build --prefix ~/SDL
```
## Building SDL tests
You can build the SDL test programs by adding `-DSDL_TESTS=ON` to the first cmake command above:
```sh
cmake -S ~/sdl -B ~/build -DSDL_TEST_LIBRARY=ON -DSDL_TESTS=ON
cmake -S . -B build -DSDL_TESTS=ON
```
and then building normally. In this example, the test programs will be built and can be run from `~/build/tests/`.
and then building normally. The test programs will be built and can be run from `build/test/`.
### Building SDL examples
## Building SDL examples
You can build the SDL example programs by adding `-DSDL_EXAMPLES=ON` to the first cmake command above:
```sh
cmake -S ~/sdl -B ~/build -DSDL_EXAMPLES=ON
cmake -S . -B build -DSDL_EXAMPLES=ON
```
and then building normally. In this example, the example programs will be built and can be run from `~/build/examples/`.

## Including SDL in your project
SDL can be included in your project in 2 major ways:
- using a system SDL library, provided by your (*nix) distribution or a package manager
- using a system SDL library, provided by your (UNIX) distribution or a package manager
- using a vendored SDL library: this is SDL copied or symlinked in a subfolder.
The following CMake script supports both, depending on the value of `MYGAME_VENDORED`.
