# Building on macOS
#### Note - If you want to develop Chatterino 2 you will also need to install Qt Creator
1. Install Xcode and Xcode Command Line Utilites
2. Start Xcode, settings -> Locations, activate your Command Line Tools
3. Install brew https://brew.sh/
4. `brew install boost openssl rapidjson qt`
5. Go into project directory
6. Create build folder `mkdir build && cd build`
7. `qmake .. && make`
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"
```
