Trying the Samples

The best way to learn the Ultralight API is by trying out the samples.

1. Install the prerequisites

Install the prequisites for your platform if you haven't already done so.

2. Get the latest release from GitHub

Download the latest release from GitHub by clicking here.

3. Build the samples

Open up your terminal / command prompt and run the following from wherever you extracted the package:

cmake -B build
cmake --build build --config Release

👍
Make sure to use Clang when compiling on Linux
If you run into compilation issues on Linux, make sure you've selected Clang instead of GCC as your default compiler.
Set your CC and CXX environment variables before running CMake again (you may need to delete your build directory)
export CC=/usr/bin/clang
export CXX=/usr/bin/clang++

4. Run the samples

On macOS and Linux the projects will be built to:

/build/samples/<Sample Name>/

On Windows the projects will be built to:

/build/samples/<Sample Name>/Release

Just navigate to each of these folders and double click the app / executable to run.
