Get source and compile
Revision as of 09:26, 22 December 2007 by Dzonatas Sol (talk | contribs) (→Compiling: copyedit on the list)
Even if you don't plan to develop, just the act of downloading and compiling can uncover problems. If the version you download doesn't build on your platform, file a bug.
Getting the source
Download Source Archives (Zipfile/Tarball)
Linden Lab does provide current and past downloads in an archived format, see the source downloads page.
Version Control
Linden Lab also maintains a version control repository. There are some unofficial repositories, too. See the version control repository page and source version control for more details.
Compiling
Per platform instructions are available in these topics:
See Common compilation problems if you run into errors while building.
See Improving compilation time for information on how to compile faster
