These instructions explain how to set up the tools required to build **tumbledemerald**, which assembles the source files into a ROM.
If you're just ready to compile a ROM, and you have a machine running a Debian/Ubuntu-based distro or Arch Linux:
```fish
git clone https://github.com/tumbledemerald-org/te-utils.git
cd te-utils
cd scripts
cd linux
cd game
sh pacman # if you use Debian or Ubuntu, enter "sh apt" here instead.
```
For other systems, follow the manual install instructions below:
These instructions come with notes which can be expanded by clicking the "<i>Note...</i>" text.
In general, you should not need to open these unless if you get an error or if you need additional clarification.
If you run into trouble, ask for help on Matrix (see [README.md](README.md)).

Windows has instructions for building with three possible terminals, providing 3 different options in case the user stumbles upon unexpected errors.

**A note of caution**: As Windows 7 is officially unsupported by Microsoft and Windows 8 has very little usage, some maintainers are unwilling to maintain the Windows 7/8 instructions.

### Installing devkitARM on Arch Linux
1. Follow [devkitPro's instructions](https://devkitpro.org/wiki/devkitPro_pacman#Customising_Existing_Pacman_Install) to configure `pacman` to download devkitPro packages.
2. Install `gba-dev`: run the following command as root.
```console
pacman -S gba-dev
```
This will ask for the selection of packages to install. Just press Enter to install all of them, followed by entering Y to proceed with the installation.
3. Run the following command to set devkitPro related environment variables (alternatively, close and re-open the Terminal):
```bash
source /etc/profile.d/devkit-env.sh

Note that this is not necessary for a non-modern build since those are built with debug symbols by default.
