## LibreWolf build instructions ## LibreWolf build instructions
There currently are two ways to build LibreWolf. You can either use the source tarball or compile directly with this repository.
### Building from the Tarball
First, let's **[download the latest tarball](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/source/-/jobs/artifacts/main/raw/librewolf-99.0.1-1.source.tar.gz?job=Build)**. This tarball is the latest produced by the [CI](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/source/-/jobs). You can also check the sha256sum of the tarball there.

This tarball is the latest produced by the [CI](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/source/-/jobs). You can also check the sha256sum of the tarball there.
So here is how build LibreWolf for Linux:
``` ```
tar xf <tarball> tar xf <tarball>
cd <folder> cd <folder>
make setup-wasi bootstrap build package run
``` ```
#### How to make a patch:
Then, you have to bootstrap your system to be able to build LibreWolf. You only have to do this one time. It is done by running the following commands:
```
./mach --no-interactive bootstrap --application-choice=browser
./lw/setup-wasi-linux.sh
```
Finally you can build LibreWolf and then package or run it with the following commands:
```
./mach build
./mach package
# OR
./mach run
```
### Building with this Repository
First, clone this repository with Git:
```
git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/source.git librewolf-source
cd librewolf-source
```
Next, build the LibreWolf source code with the following command:
```
make dir
```
After that, you have to bootstrap your system to be able to build LibreWolf. You only have to do this one time. It is done by running the following command:
```
make bootstrap
```
Finally you can build LibreWolf and then package or run it with the following commands:
```
make build
make package
# OR
make run
```
