First clone the repository with git clone --recursive <URL>.

Note: If the repository has already been cloned non-recursively, use git submodule update --init to clone the necessary submodules. AnEngine uses the Premake 5 build system. Follow these instructions to install it.

AnEngine works best using Visual Studio 2022. To generate the .sln and .vcxproj files, run premake vs2022 in the root directory of the repository.

AnEngine has extra dependencies on Linux. These development packages are needed:

• libxcursor
• libxrandr
• libxinerama
• libxi
• libglew

AnEngine also requires versions of gcc and g++ that support C++20 (gcc and g++ >= 10).

On apt-based distros, these can be installed by running:

sudo apt install libxcursor-dev libxrandr-dev libxinerama-dev libxi-dev libglew-dev

AnEngine can then be configured and compiled with:

premake5 gmake2 make
