3. CMake

Medium
Prerequisites
  • Git Needed to download the project code from GitHub.
  • CMake The tool used to generate build configuration.
  • C/C++ 컴파일러 Windows needs Visual Studio (Community edition, free), macOS needs Xcode Command Line Tools, Linux needs the gcc/g++ package.
⚠️ 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.
cd _test/clion-review

This project's files live in a subfolder, so move into it first.

mkdir build && cd build

Creates a folder to hold the build output and moves into it.

cmake ..

Analyzes the source code and generates build configuration files (must be run inside the build folder).

make

Compiles the code based on the generated build configuration to produce an executable.

βœ… Check that an executable was created inside the build folder, then run it directly (e.g. ./build/app_name).

4. Go

Medium
Prerequisites
  • Git Needed to download the project code from GitHub.
  • Go The Go compiler and toolchain.
go install github.com/rokath/trice/cmd/trice@latest

Downloads and installs the specified version directly β€” no need to clone the repo yourself.

βœ… If the build finishes without errors, it worked. If you used go run ., check the terminal output.
