Compilation

These are the instructions to download and compile Kiwix source code.

== Get the code ==

The source code of Kiwix is available:
 * Directly from the source code repository: https://sourceforge.net/p/kiwix/kiwix/
 * As a tarball: http://download.kiwix.org/src/

== Dependencies == Kiwix relies on many open source libraries to compile. If it does not compile this probably means one of these library is not available. Check the configure log file.

== Compilation ==

The compilation on UNIX (GNU/Linux) follows the GNU autotools procedure:

On Apple Mac OSX and Microsoft Windows, the compilation is far more complicated. Please have a look to the COMPILE file in Kiwix source directory.

== Other == The kiwix project provides also many additional tools. You may have a look to other code repositories [//code.kiwix.org here].
