# ساخت QOwnNotes

## ساخت از گیت هاب

شما هم می توانید خودتان QOwnNotes را از کد منبع بسازید.

Checkout the code of the last release directly from the git repository:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/pbek/QOwnNotes.git -b release
cd QOwnNotes
git submodule update --init
```

For debugging, it's easiest to use QtCreator. When downloading [Qt Creator](https://www.qt.io/download-qt-installer-oss), you will also need the package `qtwebsockets` to build QOwnNotes with Qt6. If you build under Windows, you want to stick to _MinGw 64-bit_. On Linux, you most likely have a package for QtCreator in your repository.

Afterward open the project file `src/QOwnNotes.pro` and click on **Build** / **Build Project QOwnNotes**.

If you know what you are doing, you can also build QOwnNotes directly in your terminal:

```bash
cd src

# build binary translation files if you want another language than English
lrelease QOwnNotes.pro

# prepare build process and build the application
qmake
make
```
