#### Compiling on Apple Silicon
Prebuilt binaries are available only for x86_64, so if you use ARM e.g. Mac M1/M2, you must compile the app manually.

**Warning**
Prebuilt binaries are available only for x86_64, so if you use ARM machine like e.g. Mac M1, you need to compile manually app.
**Compilation is simple, and takes less than 10 minutes on an M1/M2 mac.**

```
# Install Rust and Libraries
brew install rustup
rustup-init
brew install gtk4 adwaita-icon-theme librsvg libheif
```
```
# Clone and Build
git clone https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka.git
cd czkawka
cargo run --release --bin czkawka_gui
```

#### x86 on ARM
There is also a way to use x86_64 binaries on ARM, but this requires to install special version of required libraries probably via:
```shell
arch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew install gtk4 adwaita-icon-theme ffmpeg librsvg libheif
```
Sadly this doesn't work for all users, so feel free to update this part of documentation(look at https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka/issues/689 and https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka/issues/637 for more info)


### Windows
By default, all needed libraries are bundled with the app, inside `windows_czkawka_gui.zip`, but if you compile the app or just move `czkawka_gui.exe`, then you will need to install the `GTK 4`
runtime from [**here**](https://github.com/tschoonj/GTK-for-Windows-Runtime-Environment-Installer/releases).
