The recommended way of installing Amfora fom source is using the Makefile. Note that this requires GNU Make, so use the `gmake` (not `make`) command on macOS. You may have to install it with `brew install make`. On Windows, you can install [Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/install) and run `choco install make`.
This is not designed to work on Windows.
Note that the Makefile currently assumes that git is available, and that it is inside a git repository.
```
git clone https://github.com/makeworld-the-better-one/amfora
cd amfora
make
sudo make install # Not for Windows!
sudo make desktop # Optional, installs .desktop file
sudo make desktop # Optional, installs .desktop file. Not for Windows or macOS
```
Because you installed with the Makefile, running `amfora -v` will tell you exactly what commit the binary was built from.
