Building BetterAnghami

Since BetterAnghami is based on Windows Presentation Framework (WPF), it may only be compiled and ran on Windows.

To build BetterAnghami on Windows, follow these steps:

Prerequisites

• Install .NET 8 SDK.
• Install Visual Studio with the .NET desktop development workload.

Clone the Repository

Clone the BetterAnghami repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/MRKDaGods/BetterAnghami.git
cd BetterAnghami

Open in Visual Studio

Open the project in Visual Studio:

• Navigate to the cloned BetterAnghami directory
• Open BetterAnghami.sln in Visual Studio.

Visual Studio will automatically handle restoring dependencies and compiling the project when you run it.

Run the Project

Once the project is opened in Visual Studio:

• Ensure BetterAnghami is set as the startup project.
• Press F5 or go to Debug > Start Debugging to build and run the project.
