### Setup on Mac OS
## Setup on Mac OS
#### Build and test
Building on Mac OS is similar to building on Linux. To recap, these are
the steps needed to build and install Diffuse manually:
Diffuse is using Meson as its build system.
```brew install meson python3 py3cairo pygobject3 gtk+3 librsvg
meson setup build
cd build
meson compile
meson test
meson install
To build and test Diffuse:
```sh
meson setup build
cd build
meson compile
meson test
```
After `meson install`, the `diffuse` command can be used to launch Diffuse
as a native Mac app that is installed into `/Applications/Diffuse.app`.
#### Install on system and run
The `diffuse` command is compatible with git. To use Diffuse as git's
`git difftool` run `git config --global diff.tool diffuse`
To install Diffuse on your system (e.g. `/usr/local/`):
## Setup on Windows
```sh
meson install # requires admin privileges
```
To run Diffuse:
```sh
diffuse
```
_Note: The `diffuse` command can be used to launch Diffuse as a native Mac app_
_that is installed into `/Applications/Diffuse.app`._
### Setup on Windows (deprecated)
_Note:_ The Windows port is not maintained and would need some love.
Contributions are very welcome! 😉
