Building

Unix-like

$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/jdah/minecraft-weekend.git
$ make

The following static libraries under lib/ must be built before the main project can be built:

• GLAD lib/glad/src/glad.o
• CGLM lib/cglm/.libs/libcglm.a
• GLFW lib/glfw/src/libglfw3.a
• libnoise lib/noise/libnoise.a

All of the above have their own Makefile under their respective subdirectory and can be built with $ make libs. If libraries are not found, ensure that submodules have been cloned.

The game binary, once built with $ make, can be found in ./bin/.

Be sure to run with $ ./bin/game out of the root directory of the repository. If you are getting "cannot open file" errors (such as "cannot find ./res/shaders/*.vs"), this is the issue.

Windows

good luck 🤷‍♂️ probably try building under WSL and using an X environment to pass graphics through.
