Windows developers will type the following in a terminal or a PowerShell window:

.. code:: console
.. parsed-literal::

mkdir build
cd build
conan install .. --build missing
qmake ../|short tool id|.pro
nmake
mkdir build
cd build
conan install .. --build missing
qmake ../|short tool id|.pro
nmake

Linux or Mac users will type the following in a terminal window from inside the |app| directory:

.. code:: console
.. parsed-literal::

mkdir build
cd build
conan install .. --build missing
qmake ../|short tool id|.pro
make
mkdir build
cd build
conan install .. --build missing
qmake ../|short tool id|.pro
make

.. note::

#. qmake is an application installed with Qt. To be able to run the command as known, the path to the Qt bin folder needs to be added to your **PATH** environment variable. Alternatively, you need to specify the full path to qmake, i.e., on my desktop (if I had not set my PATH variable), I would replace line 3 with the following:

.. parsed-literal::

.. code:: console

/Users/fmckenna/Qt/5.15.2/clang_64/bin/qmake ../|short tool id|.pro
/Users/fmckenna/Qt/5.15.2/clang_64/bin/qmake ../|short tool id|.pro

#. On Windows 10 and later with Visual Studio, the above commands need to be performed using a `Visual Studio x64 command prompt <https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/build/how-to-enable-a-64-bit-visual-cpp-toolset-on-the-command-line?view=msvc-160>`_.
