-NetRadiant is known to build and run properly on Linux, FreeBSD and Windows using MSYS2. NetRadiant is known to build on macOS, but can't display things properly without a modified GtkGLExt which is yet to be upstreamed, and issues are known. Windows build is known to work well on wine, which can be used as a fallback on that system. At this time library bundling is only supported on Windows/MSYS2 and Linux. Linux bundles do not ship GTK (users are espected to have a working GTK with GtkGlExt environment).

+NetRadiant is known to build and run properly on Linux, FreeBSD and Windows using MSYS2, and build on macOS with Homebrew (some bugs are known though). Windows build is known to work well on wine, which can be used as a fallback on some system.
+
+At this time library bundling is only supported on Linux, Windows/MSYS2, and macOS/Homebrew. Since bundling copies things from the host, a clean build environment has to be used in order to get a clean bundle. Linux bundle does not ship GTK (users are expected to have a working GTK environment with GtkGlExt installed).

### Ubuntu:
```sh
-apt-get install --reinstall build-essential cmake lib{x11,gtk2.0,gtkglext1,xml2,jpeg,webp,minizip}-dev git subversion unzip wget
+apt-get install --reinstall build-essential cmake \
+ lib{x11,gtk2.0,gtkglext1,xml2,jpeg,webp,minizip}-dev \
+ git subversion unzip wget
```
If you plan to build a bundle, you also need to install `uuid-runtime patchelf`
This is enough to build NetRadiant but you may also install those extra packages to get proper GTK2 graphical and sound themes: `gnome-themes-extra gtk2-engines-murrine libcanberra-gtk-module`
+
### MSYS2:
Under MSYS2, the mingw shell must be used.
If you use MSYS2 over SSH, add `mingw64` to the path this way (given you compile for 64 bit Windows, replace with `mingw32` if you target 32 bit Windows instead):
```sh
-export PATH="/mingw64/bin:${PATH}"`
+export PATH="/mingw64/bin:${PATH}"
```
Install the dependencies this way:
```sh
-pacman -S --needed base-devel mingw-w64-$(uname -m)-{ntldd-git,subversion,unzip,toolchain,cmake,make,gtk2,gtkglext,libwebp,minizip-git} git
+pacman -S --needed base-devel git \
+ mingw-w64-$(uname -m)-{ntldd-git,subversion,unzip,toolchain,cmake,make,gtk2,gtkglext,libwebp,minizip-git}
```
Explicitely use `mingw-w64-x86_64-` or `mingw-w64-i686-` prefix instead of `mingw-w64-$(uname -m)` if you need to target a non-default architecture.
### macOS:
```sh
-brew install gcc cmake gtkglext pkgconfig minizip webp coreutils gnu-sed
+brew install cmake glib gtk+ pkgconfig minizip webp coreutils gnu-sed wget
brew link --force gettext
```
## Submodules
- * Crunch (optional, disabled by default, only supported with CMake build)
+ * Crunch (optional, not built if submodule is not present)
-If you have not used `--recursive` option at `git clone` time, you can fetch Crunch this way (run it within the `netradiant` repository):

```
-## Compiling
+## Simple compilation
+
+It is required to first download the sources using `git` (do not use tarballs) and to have dependencies installed, see [Getting the sources](#getting-the-sources) and [Dependencies](#dependencies) above.
+
+
+### Easy builder assistant
+
+If you have standard needs and use well-known platform and operating system, you may try the provided `easy-builder` script which may be enough for you, you can run it this way:
+
+```sh
+./easy-builder
+```
+
+If everything went right, you'll find your netradiant build in `install/` subdirectory.
+
+If you need to build a debug build (to get help from a developer, for example), you can do it this way:
+
+```sh
+./easy-builder --debug
+```
+
+By default, build tools and compilers are using the `build/` directory as workspace.
+
+For supported system, bundling dependencies can be done this way:
+
+```sh
+./easy-builder -DBUNDLE_LIBRARIES=ON
+```
+
+Note: always do bundling on clean system without unrelated software installed.
+
+
+## Advanced compilation
### Initial build
#### Debug build
```sh
-cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -H. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
+cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug

+cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -S. -Bbuild -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

-On macOS you have to add this to the first cmake call:
-
-```sh
--DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/local/bin/gcc-9 -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/local/bin/g++-9
-```
-
-On FreeBSD you have to add this to the first cmake call:
