# 1. BUILDING AND INSTALLATION
## CMake (Unix)
```sh
mkdir build && cd build
cmake .. # Default to Unix Makefiles.
make
make verify # (optional)
```
See [Documentation/Building#Building on Unix using CMake](/Documentation/Building.md#building-on-unix-cmake) for more information.
## CMake (Windows)
Install CMake: <https://cmake.org/>
```sh
