How to install Dependencies (Windows)

Install MSYS2 From msys2.org then open the MinGW64 shell and type

pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake mingw-w64-x86_64-make

MSVC Dependencies

For MSVC (CL Compiler) builds, Visual Studio 2022 with C++ Desktop Development workload is required. Raylib and other system dependencies are auto-downloaded by CMake.

Quick start (For all Operating Systems)

git clone https://github.com/TimGoTheCreator/CxxGRAV.git
cd CxxGRAV
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build . 
cd bin
./CxxGRAV

For this, Git is required Note: for MSVC the directory of the binary output might change to Debug
