# Setup
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Make sure you can build and run Chromium. Any platform and set of build flags is
|
|
|
|
|
OK, so long as your code is relatively recent (commit position 1223636 onwards,
|
|
|
|
|
corresponding to November 2023):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
|
|
|
gn gen out/Debug
|
|
|
|
|
autoninja -C out/Debug chrome
|
|
|
|
|
out/Debug/chrome # or on Mac, out/Debug/Chromium.app/Contents/MacOS/Chromium
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(A component, debug build is recommended for quickest iteration time. This
|
|
|
|
|
is the default!)
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
if you aren't already at that point. Be warned: setting up to build Chromium
|
2023-11-27 18:21:19 +00:00
|
|
|
takes time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It's also recommended that you have Visual Studio code installed.

# About the exercises
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This part of the course has a series of exercises which build on each other.
|
|
|
|
|
We'll be doing them spread throughout the course instead of just at the end.
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't have time to complete a certain part, don't worry: you can
|

|
|
catch up in the next slot.
