## macOS details

Run `cmake` with the following parameters and then `ninja`:
To compile Aseprite on macOS, you need to set up your build environment correctly. Here are the steps to prepare and build Aseprite using `cmake` and `ninja`:

1. **Prepare the Build Directory**
```sh
cd aseprite
mkdir build
cd build
```

2. **Configure the Build**
Before running `cmake`, ensure you have the correct macOS SDK path. You can find the SDK path by running:
```sh
xcrun --show-sdk-path
```
Use the output from the above command to set the `CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT` flag. Replace `/path/to/MacOSX.sdk` in the cmake command below with the path output from the `xcrun` command.

```sh
cmake \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo \
-DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=x86_64 \
-DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.9 \
-DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk \
-DCMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT=/path/to/MacOSX.sdk \
-DLAF_BACKEND=skia \
-DSKIA_DIR=$HOME/deps/skia \
-DSKIA_LIBRARY_DIR=$HOME/deps/skia/out/Release-x64 \
-DSKIA_LIBRARY=$HOME/deps/skia/out/Release-x64/libskia.a \
-G Ninja \
..
```

3. **Build Aseprite**
```sh
ninja aseprite
```

In this configuration:
- Replace `/path/to/MacOSX.sdk` with the actual path to the MacOSX SDK on your system.
- Ensure that `CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT` points to the correct SDK directory as identified using `xcrun --show-sdk-path`.
- `$HOME/deps/skia` should be the directory where Skia was compiled or downloaded.

This setup will help ensure that your build environment is correctly configured for your specific macOS system and version.

In this case, `$HOME/deps/skia` is the directory where Skia was
compiled or downloaded. Make sure that `CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT` is
pointing to the correct SDK directory (in this case
`/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk`),
but it could be different in your Mac.
