Build Requirements

This app uses a SDK-style project file, which means you are required to use Visual Studio 2022 or newer. Visual Studio will prompt you to install any missing components once you open the sln file.

Once you got the requirements setup, you can compile this yourself, by running the build.ps1 file on Windows.
