I know this is probably in the works, but just documenting the current state of things.

I'm not sure I want it to... ldc's thing is a bit separate, the way i built it is

mkdir /tmp/ldc-build
cd /tmp/ldc-build
cmake ~/opend/ldc
make

and i think i like it like that.

adamdruppe commented

Of course, the top-level makefile could perhaps do that too just im more planning on documenting that than integrating it per se

I was just thinking it would be a nice change from upstream to have make just do everything for you, instead of having to read a wiki page and manually type in 15 obscure CLI commands just to get a working toolchain.

It's no biggie, of course, but at least the above steps should be documented. I couldn't find any information except on the LDC wiki, which has a whole bunch of obscure steps. Just putting this in the README or something would go a long way in making this more accessible to people.

I've been taking live notes on teh website (at least when i don't typo it and lead to a html validation error lol)

https://dpldocs.info/opend/start.html

but yeah a make ldc target could alway go over and do that too.
