Prerequisites
  • Git Needed to download the project code from GitHub.
  • Make Usually pre-installed on Linux/macOS. On Windows, install separately (e.g. via MSYS2 or WSL).
⚠️ This is a large repository, so this method may point to an internal sub-package rather than the actual core product. Check the full README as well.
