Introduction

You can compile the source code in order to get the most recent commits by the developers. This enables you to try out features or fixes that are not yet released. This can be the main repository master branch for those changes that should be in the next release, or developer branches for cutting edge features. Be aware that these branches might be unstable and can include bugs that lead to a loss of funds, so use with caution and on testnet.

Get The Requirements

  1. Install Git

  2. Install .NET 10.0 SDK for "Build apps"

    Optional for privacy

    You can disable .NET's telemetry, which is sending some usage information to Microsoft, by typing:

    export DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT=1 on Linux and macOS.

    setx DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT 1 to disable it permanently on Windows.
