#### CMake version 3.25.0 or later
Serenity-specific patches were upstreamed to CMake in major version 3.25. To avoid carrying
patches to CMake, the minimum required CMake to build Serenity is set to that version.
If more patches are upstreamed to CMake, the minimum will be bumped again once that version releases.
To accomodate distributions that do not ship bleeding-edge CMake versions, the build scripts will
attempt to build CMake from source if the version on your path is older than 3.25.x.
### Windows
If you're on Windows you can use WSL2 to build SerenityOS. Please have a look at the [Windows guide](BuildInstructionsWindows.md)
