<p>Complete OpenSite user manual, tutorial pathways and support navigation</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>__NOTOC__<br /> {{OpenSite scope}}<br /> {{OpenSite lesson<br /> |id=opensite.help.build-opensite-on-windows<br /> |summary=Use the repository’s Windows desktop preset when you are an authorized developer.<br /> |prerequisites=Repository and dependency access; Visual Studio 2026 with the required C++ toolchain, CMake and matching prepared dependency prefixes. This is not an end-user installer guide.<br /> |steps=<br /> === Prepare matching dependencies ===<br /> The documented layout has a dependency root containing matching Debug/Release scientific, Qt and Eigen prefixes. Configure does not download or build them automatically. Follow the repository’s Build-and-Dependencies guide for the selected snapshot.<br /> <br /> === Choose one configuration ===<br /> Use &lt;code&gt;windows-vs2026-release-desktop&lt;/code&gt; for a Release desktop tree. Debug is a separate preset and dependency configuration. Do not reuse a build directory configured for another generator or runtime.<br /> <br /> === Configure and build ===<br /> {{Code|lang=text|code=&lt;nowiki&gt;cmake --preset windows-vs2026-release-desktop<br /> cmake --build --preset windows-vs2026-release-desktop&lt;/nowiki&gt;}}<br /> A successful configure is not proof of a complete runnable distribution. Keep the command output and use the repository’s test/staging procedure.<br /> <br /> === Use CMake GUI if preferred ===<br /> Choose the repository source and a new build directory, select the desktop preset or matching dependency root/configuration and GUI/Python options, Configure, then Generate. The repository documents &lt;code&gt;OpenSite.slnx&lt;/code&gt; for the Visual Studio 2026 generator. Build only its selected configuration.<br /> <br /> === Verify the delivered layout ===<br /> Use the repository’s install/stage workflow and its clean runtime checks. A raw executable in a build tree is not a replacement for a package with Qt plugins, extensions and runtime closure.<br /> <br /> === Return to user help ===<br /> Once you have a verified matching desktop package, follow [[OpenSite/Guides/First desktop session]]. Report your own commands/results; historical acceptance reports are not a test of your computer.<br /> |result=You have selected the correct existing build procedure without confusing it with public installation.<br /> |limitations=No source licence is granted here. This page does not publish dependency binaries, redefine SDK compatibility or claim a new build/test result.<br /> }}<br /> <br /> == Continue learning ==<br /> [[OpenSite/User manual|User manual]] · [[OpenSite/Tutorials|Tutorial pathways]] · [[OpenSite/Support|Get help]]<br /> <br /> &lt;div class=&quot;os-page-nav&quot;&gt;{{Docnav|OpenSite/Reference/Workbenches/Native sample|OpenSite/Tutorials|OpenSite/User manual|User manual}}&lt;/div&gt;<br /> [[Category:OpenSite documentation]]</div>
