How to Compile

Set up your environment

You need Visual Studio 2019 or a later version to compile Taiga. Older versions may not work due to lack of support for some C++ features.

You also need git to be installed on your system and added to the PATH environment variable.

Get the source code

Clone Taiga and its submodules. This may take a while.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/erengy/taiga.git

Build dependencies

taiga\deps\build.bat

Visual Studio installation is located automatically using vswhere, if available. Alternatively, you can provide an argument to build.bat according to your Visual Studio version (16 for VS2019, 15 for VS2017, 14 for VS2015).

Build Taiga

At this point, you can either open project\vs2019\Taiga.sln in Visual Studio, or build Taiga from the command line:

devenv taiga\project\vs2019\Taiga.sln /Build "Release|Win32"

Build installer

Make sure you have NSIS installed, then call:

"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\NSIS\makensis.exe" taiga\setup\Taiga.nsi
