## Install `depot_tools` and Git
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Follow the instructions on [Installing Chromium's
|
||
|
|
depot_tools](http://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/install-depot-tools)
|
||
|
|
to download `depot_tools` (which includes gclient, git-cl, and Ninja).
|
||
|
|
Below is a summary of the necessary steps.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<!--?prettify lang=sh?-->
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git clone 'https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git'
|
||
|
|
export PATH="${PWD}/depot_tools:${PATH}"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`depot_tools` will also install Git on your system, if it wasn't installed
|
||
|
|
already.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Install `bazelisk`
|
||
|
|
If you intend to add or remove files, or change #includes, you will need to use Bazel to
|
||
|
|
regenerate parts of the BUILD.bazel files. Instead of installing Bazel manually, we recommend
|
||
|
|
you install [Bazelisk](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazelisk#installation), which will fetch the
|
||
|
|
appropriate version of [Bazel](https://bazel.build/) for you (as specified by //.bazelversion).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Clone the Skia repository
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Skia can either be cloned using `git` or the `fetch` tool that is
|
||
|
|
installed with `depot_tools`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<!--?prettify lang=sh?-->
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
git clone https://skia.googlesource.com/skia.git
|
||
|
|
# or
|
||
|
|
# fetch skia
|
||
|
|
cd skia
|
||
|
|
python3 tools/git-sync-deps
|
||
|
|
bin/fetch-ninja
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Getting started with Skia
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You will probably now want to [build](../build) Skia.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Changing and contributing to Skia
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At this point, you have everything you need to build and use Skia! If
|
||
|
|
you want to make changes, and possibly contribute them back to the Skia
|
||
|
|
project, read [How To Submit a Patch](/docs/dev/contrib/submit/).
