# Developing Gitnuro
## Requirements
- **JDK 17 or higher**: You don't need this if you only use the JDK installed by IntelliJ IDEA. If you want to build using the CLI, check this [section](#alternative-setting-up-jdk-for-use-on-cli).
- **Rust:** Gitnuro is mainly written in Kotlin (JVM) but also uses Rust for some specific tasks. To set up your Rust environment,
please read [its documentation](https://www.rust-lang.org/). `cargo` and `rustc` must be available in the path in order to build Gitnuro properly.
- **Perl:** Perl is required to build openssl (which is required for LibSSH to work).
- **Packages for Linux ARM64/aarch64**: You need to install the `aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc` package to cross compile the
Rust components to ARM from x86_64. You will also need to use `rustup` to add a new target: `rustup target add aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`

Check which Java version this project currently uses (`cat build.gradle.kts | grep JavaLanguageVersion`) and install it.
For instance on Debian-based systems, you'd run:
```bash
sudo apt-get install openjdk-17-jre openjdk-17-jdk
sudo apt install openjdk-17-jre openjdk-17-jdk
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64
