#### CMake version 3.25.0 or later
Serenity-specific patches were upstreamed to CMake in major version 3.25. To avoid carrying
patches to CMake, the minimum required CMake to build Serenity is set to that version.
If more patches are upstreamed to CMake, the minimum will be bumped again once that version releases.
To accomodate distributions that do not ship bleeding-edge CMake versions, the build scripts will
attempt to build CMake from source if the version on your path is older than 3.25.x.
### Windows
If you're on Windows you can use WSL2 to build SerenityOS. Please have a look at the [Windows guide](BuildInstructionsWindows.md)

Installing macfuse for the first time requires enabling its system extension in System Preferences and then restarting your machine. The output from installing macfuse with brew says this, but it's easy to miss.
It's important to make sure that Xcode is not only installed but also accordingly updated, otherwise CMake will run into incompatibilities with GCC.
Homebrew is known to ship bleeding edge CMake versions, but building CMake from source with homebrew
gcc or llvm may not work. If homebrew does not offer cmake 3.25.x+ on your platform, it may be neccessary
to manually run Toolchain/BuildCMake.sh with Apple clang from Xcode as the first compiler in your $PATH.
