Build & Run

For development:

  1. Create a debug build directory. mkdir -p build/debug
  2. Build. cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug --build build/debug
  3. Create symbolic links to ui files in build folder. ln -s ui/ build/debug/
  4. Run. ./build/debug/WhatsApp

For full installation, add -DINSTALL_RESOURCES=on to the CMake options, and use cmake --install build/debug or make install -C build/debug after building (you'll probably need administrator privileges for the installation).
