Requirements

-wxWidgets 3.2+ -C++17 compiler -Linux/Windows/macOS

🐧 Linux (Ubuntu)

sudo apt install libwxgtk3.2-dev g++ make
git clone https://github.com/Joa98Dev/passgen-.git
cd PassGen
make

🐧 Linux (Arch)

# 1. Install dependencies (wxGTK3 and build tools)
sudo pacman -S wxgtk3 gcc make git

# 2. Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/Joa98Dev/passgen-.git
cd PassGen

# 3. Build (using make or directly with g++)
make

# OR if you want to direct compile it:
g++ main.cpp ui.cpp -o passgen `wx-config --cxxflags --libs`

# 4. Run
./passgen

🪟 Windows (MinGW)

# 1. Install Chocolatey (Windows package manager)
Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Scope Process -Force
[System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor 3072
iex ((New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://chocolatey.org/install.ps1'))

# 2. Install dependencies and build tool
choco install -y mingw make git wxwidgets

# 3. Clone repository
choco install -y mingw make git wxwidgets
cd PassGen

# 4. Build the application
# First create a MinGW-compatible Makefile (save as 'Makefile.win')
echo @echo off > Makefile.win
echo g++ -I"C:\wxWidgets-3.2.0\include" -L"C:\wxWidgets-3.2.0\lib\gcc_dll" src\main.cpp src\ui.cpp -o passgen.exe -lwxmsw32u_core -lwxbase32u >> Makefile.win

# Then build
make -f Makefile.win

# OR direct compiling
g++ -I"C:\wxWidgets-3.2.0\include" -L"C:\wxWidgets-3.2.0\lib\gcc_dll" src\main.cpp src\ui.cpp -o passgen.exe -lwxmsw32u_core -lwxbase32u

# 5. Run the application
.\passgen.exe
