## Building
-* (Recommended) Create a build folder and change into it
+### Tools
+* Qt
+* gcc on linux, msvc on windows
+* qbs
+
+### Steps
+
+* Create a build folder
```
-mkdir build && cd build
+[smolbote repo]$ mkdir build
```
-* Generate the Makefile
+* Run qbs
```
-qmake-qt5 ../src/smolbote.pro
-
-* [TODO] Prepare translations
+[smolbote repo]$ qbs build --build-directory build --file src/smolbote.qbs profile:qt5 release
+```
+This installs the files to build/release/install-root.
-* Run make
+* Test run using the specified Qt profile (optional)
```
-make
+[smolbote repo]$ qbs run --build-directory build --file src/smolbote.qbs --products poi profile:qt5 release
```
### Notes
-* Don't do any steps marked [TODO]
* Windows: MSVC compiler is required because of QtWebEngine dependency
* Windows: Passing the -v or -h parameters creates a dialog box instead of
writing the output to stdout. This is Qt behaviour.
