# Building on Mac OSX 1. install Xcode and Xcode Command Line Utilites 2. start Xcode, settings -> Locations, activate your Command Line Tools 3. install Qt Creator 4. install brew https://brew.sh/ 5. `brew install boost openssl rapidjson` 6. build the project using Qt Creator If the Project does not build at this point, you might need to add additional Paths/Libs, because brew does not install openssl and boost in the common path. You can get their path using `brew info openssl` `brew info boost` The lines which you need to add to your project file should look similar to this ``` INCLUDEPATH += /usr/local/opt/openssl/include LIBS += -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib INCLUDEPATH += "/usr/local/Cellar/boost/1.67.0_1/include" LIBS += -L"/usr/local/Cellar/boost/1.67.0_1/lib" ```
