 # How to build
-## Windows
-1. Install Visual Studio >= 2017 with CMake support.
-1. Download and install Boost prebuilt binaries https://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost-binaries/1.68.0/boost_1_68_0-msvc-14.1-64.exe, also add `BOOST_ROOT` to the _Environment Variables_.
-1. Download and install OpenSSL prebuilt binaries https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html (`Win64 OpenSSL v1.1.0h` for example).
-1. Download and install CUDA Toolkit https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads
-1. Add `.../boost_1_68_0/lib64-msvc-14.1` to the _System Path_.
-1. Open project folder in Visual Studio, select your target (`Release-x64` for example, if you downloaded 64bit Boost and OpenSSL) and select `CMake -> Build All`.
-1. Go to `CMake -> Cache -> Open Cache Folder -> beam-opencl-miner` (you'll find `beam-opencl-miner.exe`).
-
-## Linux (Ubuntu 14.04)
-1. Install `gcc7` `boost` `ssl` packages.
-```
-  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
-  sudo apt update
-  sudo apt install g++-7 libboost-all-dev libssl-dev -y
-```
-2. Set it up so the symbolic links `gcc`, `g++` point to the newer version:
-```
-  sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/gcc gcc /usr/bin/gcc-7 60 \
-                           --slave /usr/bin/g++ g++ /usr/bin/g++-7 
-  sudo update-alternatives --config gcc
-  gcc --version
-  g++ --version
-```
-3. Install OpenCL
-```
-  sudo apt install ocl-icd-* opencl-headers
-```
-4. Install latest CMake 
-```
-  wget "https://cmake.org/files/v3.12/cmake-3.12.0-Linux-x86_64.sh"
-  sudo sh cmake-3.12.0-Linux-x86_64.sh --skip-license --prefix=/usr
-```
-5. Go to beam-opencl-miner project folder and call `cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release . && make -j4`.
-6. You'll find _beam-opencl-miner_ binary in `bin` folder.
-
-## Mac
-1. Install Brew Package Manager.
-1. Installed necessary packages using `brew install openssl boost cmake` command.
-1. Add `export OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR="/usr/local/opt/openssl"` to the _Environment Variables_.
-1. Go to beam-opencl-miner project folder and call `cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release . && make -j4`.
