Clone the repository

git clone --recursive https://github.com/gavrilovmiroslav/dagger-relic.git

Grab an IDE

We support using Visual Studio Code to do our development, you can grab it from the following link: https://code.visualstudio.com/download

Afterwards simply run the following commands in the terminal to get the needed extensions to work with the project:

code --install-extension ms-vscode.cpptools
code --install-extension mesonbuild.mesonbuild

Compile and Run

• Open the dagger-relic folder in VS Code
• Wait for the meson extnsion to finish loading
  • It will take a bit longer for the extension to load when opening the folder for the first time as it will prepare all the project and dependenies for compilation
• Select the proper debug configuration in the debug panel on the left sidebar, "Dagger (Linux)", "Dagger (Windows)" or "Dagger (macOS)"
• Press F5 to start compilation / debug process
• Grofit!
