Building from source with CMake
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Rather than building from source, consider using a packaged build for your platform. Using the
steps below makes fish difficult to uninstall or upgrade. Release packages are available from the
links above, and up-to-date `development builds of fish are available for many platforms
<https://github.com/fish-shell/fish-shell/wiki/Development-builds>`__
To install into ``/usr/local``, run:
.. code:: bash
mkdir build; cd build
cmake ..
make
sudo make install
cmake --build .
sudo cmake --install .
The install directory can be changed using the
``-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`` parameter for ``cmake``.
