## Building

TaikoArcadeLoader can be a bit tricky to build if you've never done it before.  
Go to the TaikoArcadeLoader folder and run the following commands:

```bash
apt install -y npm mingw-w64 ninja-build nasm 7zip cmake python3-pip
pip3 install meson

npm install n -g && n latest && npm install --global xpm@latest
npx xpm init && npx xpm install @xpack-dev-tools/mingw-w64-gcc@latest

# make sure you're in the TaikoArcadeLoader folder before running this
export PATH=`pwd`/xpacks/.bin:$PATH
make clean-setup
```

Once that's done, run `make` to build TAL.  
The output will be written in the `out` folder.
