Information for programmers

Lines of code

The source code for Daisy is hosted on GitHub and redistributable under the terms of the GPL and the LGPL. 

You will find detailed build instructions on the main GitHub page. Building on Linux, Mac, And Windows are supported.

You may instead download a pre-compiled version of Daisy.

If you want to build an older version of Daisy (before 7), you can find instructions here.

Environment

If you build Daisy yourself (rather than install it through a pre-complied package), you will want to set DAISYHOME to point to your development directory, so Daisy will pick up the right versions of the lib and sample files.

Random acts of documentation

The subpages here document some minor aspects of the code, they may be out of day, and do not cover the main structure or any of most important subcomponents.
