## 🔧 Build
You can build the application like any other .NET Core / WPF application on Windows.
1. Make sure that the following requirements are installed:
- [SDK .NET 6.x](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/6.0)
- Visual Studio 2019 or later with `.NET desktop development` and `Universal Windows Platform development`
2. (optional) Install [InnoSetup](https://jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php) to create an installer.
- Download the additional languages from the [Inno Setup repository](https://github.com/jrsoftware/issrc/blob/main/Files/Languages/Unofficial/) and copy the following files to `%ProgramFiles%\Inno Setup 6\Languages`: `ChineseSimplified.isl`, `ChineseTraditional.isl`, `Hungarian.isl`, `Korean.isl`
> **NOTE**: The languages files must be downloaded or cloned so that the encoding of the file is not changed
> (e.g. Chinese should be `UTF-8-BOM`).
3. Clone the repository and all submodules:
```PowerShell
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager
# Change directory
cd NETworkManager
# Clone the submodules
git submodule update --init --recursive
```
4. Open the `Source\NETworkManager.sln` with Visual Studio or JetBrains Rider to build (or debug) the solution.
> **NOTE** If you have installed the requirements from step 1 (and optionally step 2), you can also directly build the
> binaries with PowerShell 7 or later:
>
> ```PowerShell
> # Clone the repository
> git clone https://github.com/BornToBeRoot/NETworkManager
>
> # Change directory
> cd NETworkManager
>
> # Clone the submodules
> git submodule update --init --recursive
>
> # Allow the execution of the build script
> Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass
>
> # Build the binaries
> & .\build.ps1
> ```
