Getting Started in Windows
- We assume you have Git installed locally (https://git-scm.com/) or any application like SourceTree (https://www.sourcetreeapp.com) for visualizing Git repositories.
- Create a GitHub account if you would like to contribute to the project, click Sign up at the top of this page.
- Install Silverlight 5.0 Tools for Visual Studio 2010 or Silverlight 5.0 SDK (For building Silverlight without Visual Studio)
Proud to use:
Clone the source code from GitHub:
- Create a new folder on your machine. Or if you are using an existing folder make sure there is no folder named Vts within that folder (This is the name it will use for the Vts repository).
- Right-click on the folder and select Git Bash Here
- Type
git clone https://github.com/VirtualPhotonics/VTS.git
- Once the files are cloned, open the solution file in Visual Studio <clone_root>/Vts/src/Vts.sln
- It is possible to build the solution and run the GUI without Visual Studio
- For intructions on building the software in Visual Studio go to Compile and run the VTS
