Build from source code

1. Run configure-windows.ps1, configure-mac.sh or configure-linux.sh depending on your platform. This will download and locally install all our dependencies (JUCE, boost, vcpkg, cpprestskd).
2. Use CMake to generate the project: cmake . -G Ninja -DVCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET=x64-windows-static -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="./vcpkg/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake" -DFORMULA_STANDALONE=1. Replace x64-windows-static by x64-osx or arm64-osx depending on your platform?
3. Finally, run cmake --build .
