## Building

jack-example-tools uses the [meson build system](https://mesonbuild.com).

To configure the project, meson's [universal
options](https://mesonbuild.com/Builtin-options.html#universal-options) (e.g.
**--prefix**) can be used to prepare a build directory:

```bash
meson --prefix=/usr build
```

To build the applications and libraries [ninja](https://ninja-build.org/) is
required:

```bash
ninja -C build
```

## Installing

Meson is able to install the project components to the system directories (when
run as root), while honoring the **DESTDIR** environment variable:

```bash
DESTDIR="/some/other/location" meson install -C build
```

## Releases

jack-example-tools](https://github.com/jackaudio/jack-example-tools/tags) are
created by its current maintainer [Filipe Coelho](https://github.com/falktx)
