-Compiling the desktop client on Windows with Qt6
-================================================
-
-System requirements
--------------------
-- Windows 10 or Windows 11
-- `The desktop client code <https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop>`_
-- Python 3
-- PowerShell
-- Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 and tools to compile C++
-- `KDE Craft <https://community.kde.org/Craft>`_
-
-
-Setting up Microsoft Visual Studio
-----------------------------------
-
-- Click on 'Modify' in the Visual Studio Installer:
-
- .. image:: ./images/dev/visual-studio-installer.png
- :alt: Visual Studio Installer
-
-- Select 'Desktop development with C++'
-
- .. image:: ./images/dev/desktop-development-with-cpp.png
- :alt: Desktop development with C++
-
-Handling the dependencies
--------------------------
-
-We decided to use `KDE Craft <https://community.kde.org/Craft>`_ to get all binary dependencies of the desktop client.
-because it is convenient to mantain and to set it up.
-
-- Set up KDE Craft as instructed in `Get Involved/development/Windows - KDE Community Wiki <https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development/Windows>`_ - it requires Python 3 and PowerShell.
-- After running:
-
-.. code-block:: winbatch
-
- C:\CraftRoot\craft\craftenv.ps1
-
-- Add the desktop client blueprints - the instructions to handle the client dependencies:
-
-.. code-block:: winbatch
-
- craft --add-blueprint-repository [git]https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop-client-blueprints.git
- craft craft
-
-- Install all client dependencies:
-
-.. code-block:: winbatch
-
- craft --install-deps nextcloud-client
-
-Compiling
----------
-
-- Make sure your environment variable %PATH% has the possible minimum
-- Open the Command Prompt (cmd.exe)
-- Run:
-
-.. code-block:: winbatch
-
- "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat" x64
-
-- To use the tools installed with Visual Studio, you need the following in your %PATH%:
-
- .. image:: ./images/dev/path.png
- :alt: Windows environment variables
-
-- Alternatively you can use the tools installed with KDE Craft by adding them to %PATH%:
-
-.. code-block:: winbatch
-
- set "PATH=C:\CraftRoot\bin;C:\CraftRoot\dev-utils\bin;%PATH%"
-
-.. note::
- C:\CraftRoot is the path used by default by KDE Craft. When you are setting it up you may choose a different folder.
-
-- Create build folder, run cmake, compile and install:
-
-.. code-block:: winbatch
-
- cd <desktop-repo-path>
- mkdir build
- cd build
- cmake .. -G Ninja -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=C:\CraftRoot -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo
- cmake --build . --target install
-
-After this, you can use `Qt Creator <https://doc.qt.io/qtcreator>`_ to import the build folder with its configurations to be able to work with the code.
