# Build Vikunja from source
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Vikunja being a go application, has no other dependencies than go itself.
|
|
|
|
|
All libraries are bundeled inside the repo in the `vendor/` folder, so all it boils down to are these steps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Make sure [Go](https://golang.org/doc/install) is properly installed on your system. You'll need at least Go `1.9`.
|
|
|
|
|
2. Make sure [Make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/) is properly installed on your system.
|
|
|
|
|
3. Clone the repo with `git clone https://code.vikunja.io/api`
|
|
|
|
|
3. Run `make build` in the source of this repo. This will build a binary in the root of the repo which will be able to run on your system.

|
|
|
*Note:* Static ressources such as email templates are built into the binary.
|
|
|
|
|
For these to work, you may need to run `make generate` before building the vikunja binary.
|
|
|
|
|
When builing entirely with `make`, you dont need to do this, `make generate` will be run automatically when running `make build`.

# Build for different architectures
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To build for other platforms and architectures than the one you're currently on, simply run `make release` or `make release-{linux|windows|darwin}`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
More options are available, please refer to the [makefile docs]({{< ref "../development/make.md">}}) for more details.
