    2. Install a X Server for Windows like VcXsrv
    3. Start it and export the Display variable to the emulated X Server in your Linux bash. Also export a GL pass-through, because the X Server can only handle GL 1.2:
      echo "export Display=:0" >> ~/.bashrc
  echo "export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1" >> ~/.bashrc

  2. Install SDKMAN!:

      curl -s "https://get.sdkman.io" | bash
  source "$HOME/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh"
  sdk version

  3. Install Java 8 with JavaFX and Maven 3.3.9:

    sdk install java 8.0.232.fx-zulu
sdk install maven 3.3.9

    With sdk list java or sdk list maven, you can find the other available versions.

  4. Create aJAVA_HOME variable:

    echo JAVA_HOME="$HOME/.sdkman/candidates/java/current" >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

  5. Clone this repo and change your university (e.g. kit) in the pom.xml at line 12 and in src/main/java/control/IliasManager.java at line 16.
