# 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`
|
|
5. `brew install qt`
|
|
6. Step 5 should output some directions to add qt to your path, you will need to do this for qmake
|
|
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`
|
|
|
|
If brew doesn't link openssl properly then you should be able to link it yourself using those two commands:
|
|
- `ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/* /usr/local/lib`
|
|
- `ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/include/openssl /usr/local/include/openssl`
|
|
|
|
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
|
|
```
