- Visual Studio 2022
- Desktop development with C++
- CMake tools for Windows

### Clone

```powershell
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/Kelsidavis/WoWee.git
cd WoWee
```

### Build

Open the folder in Visual Studio (it will detect CMake automatically)  
or build from Developer PowerShell:

```powershell
cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build build --config Release
```

## ⚠️ Notes

- Case matters on Linux (`WoWee` not `wowee`).
- Always use `--recurse-submodules` when cloning.
- If you encounter missing headers for ImGui, run:
  ```bash
  git submodule update --init --recursive
  ```
