It is possible to use a container as a full-featured development environment from VS Code. This works on any operating system that supports Docker.
- Install the system requirements.
- Open the project in VS Code.
- (optional) Edit
.devcontainer/devcontainer.jsonto set yourDISPLAYenvironment variable and/or edit other settings. It is also possible to run the container on a remote Docker host, see the comment at the end. - Run the Remote-Containers: Open Folder in Container... command.
- See previous section for Build and Debug instructions.

./build/cherrytreeTo install:
make installInstall MSYS2: https://www.msys2.org/ (we cover here the packages for 64 bit installation)
Launch 'MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit' terminal (there are 3 different terminals, make sure it is 64-bit otherwise it will cause issues)
Run the following command multiple times there until there are no more updates:

# build Release (optimised)
./build.sh Release
# build Debug (not optimised, with debug symbols)
./build.sh Debug
# run cherrytree
./build/cherrytree.exeTroubleshooting:
- Cannot build: make sure to start 64-bit terminal
- Cannot build: remove
cherrytree/buildfolder and startbuild.shscript again - Cannot start cherrytree: you either have to run cherrytree from the msys2 mingw64 terminal or copy and replace cherrytree in
cherrytree_0.99.X_win64_portablefolder (downloaded from the site) by the new one, so dependencies are fulfilled
