Building

You need to have the command-line tools installed. You don't necessarily need XCode:

$ xcode-select --install

To build using the Makefile you will also need to have swift-format installed:

$ brew install swift-format

To build:

$ make

To just run, building if needed:

$ swift run aural [--argument]

To run tests:

$ make test

If you get an error about unable to lookup item ‘PlatformPath’ from command line tools installation and you have XCode, then do:

$ sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
