- Supported Platforms and Build Requirements
- ##########################################
-
- ``dds`` aims to be as cross-platform as possible. It currently build and
- executes on **Windows**, **macOS**, **Linux**, and **FreeBSD**. Support for
- additional platforms is possible but will require modifications to
- ``bootstrap.py`` that will allow it to be built on such platforms.
-
-
- Build Requirements
- ******************
-
- Building ``dds`` has a simple set of requirements:
-
- - **Python 3.6** or newer to run the bootstrap/CI scripts.
- - A C++ compiler that has rudimentary support for several C++20 features,
- including Concepts. Newer releases of Visual C++ that ship with **VS
- 2019** will be sufficient on Windows, as will **GCC 9** with ``-fconcepts`` on
- other platforms.
-
- .. note::
- On Windows, you will need to execute the build from within a Visual C++
- enabled environment. This may involve launching the build from a Visual
- Studio Command Prompt.
-
- .. note::
- At the time of writing, C++20 Concepts has not yet been released in Clang,
- but should be available in LLVM/Clang 11 and newer.
