[//]: # (generated using SlashBack 0.2.0)
This page is intended for those, who want to build a specific subversion of PyGLM or want to specify different build options\.
If that's not you, then you should find the latest release with binary distributions over [here](https://github.com/Zuzu-Typ/PyGLM/releases/latest) or over on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/PyGLM/)\.
## Setting up the environment
In order to build PyGLM, you're going to need a working C\+\+ development environment\.
Although compilation should work with any C\+\+ compiler, the only ones officially supported are
* [MSVC](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Visual_C%2B%2B) \(Microsoft Visual C\+\+\) for Windows
Click here to download the [build tools](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/thank-you-downloading-visual-studio/?sku=BuildTools&rel=16)
* [GCC](https://gcc.gnu.org/) \(GNU Compiler Collection\) mostly for Linux
``` sudo apt install gcc ``` \(probably\)
* [Clang](https://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html) default Mac OS X compiler
Should already be installed\.
That should be all there is to it\.
## Build options
If you want to change some build options or make a completely custom build, go ahead and clone PyGLM\.
There are three different predefined build options that you can choose from inside of [build\_options\.h](https://github.com/Zuzu-Typ/PyGLM/blob/master/build_options.h)\.
One of the lines should be
```
#define PyGLM_BUILD PyGLM_DEFAULT
```
You can replace ``` PyGLM_DEFAULT ``` by one of the following options:
* ``` PyGLM_FAST ``` \- No support for using iterables / buffers instead of PyGLM types
* ``` PyGLM_NO_FUNCTIONS ``` \- Only build the types
* ``` PyGLM_MINIMAL ``` \- Combines ``` PyGLM_FAST ``` and ``` PyGLM_NO_FUNCTIONS ```
Another option ``` PyGLM_SLIM ``` was planned, which was supposed to only build the float types, to decrease the file size, though demand seems to be low\.
## Starting the build process
To build PyGLM, simply run
```
python setup.py install
```
\(you do need Python 3\.5 or higher\)
