Building Guide for Mac OS/X

Install Xcode from the App Store. Install homebrew.

Install git and clone the repository:

brew install git
git clone https://github.com/mfeemster/fractorium

Install the dependencies:

brew install qt5 tbb glm dbus jpeg libpng glib libxml2

TODO: Confirm if glib and libxml2 are actually needed.

Add the Qt bin folder to PATH to make qmake available. In ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc:

PATH=/usr/local/opt/qt5/bin:$PATH
export PATH

Compile the binary:

cd fractorium
qmake CONFIG-=app_bundle
make

Run the binary from the release folder:

cd Bin/release
./fractorium
