Compiling Luma

[godreborn]

I'm having trouble compiling luma. it says to add makerom to the path, but the problem is that the link provided--I can't compile that either. it also says there's no makerom directory. if I try to compile make rom, it says this:

C:\Users\GODREBORN\Desktop\Luma3DS-10.3\Project_CTR\makerom>make
CC src/accessdesc.c
/bin/sh: line 1: x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc: command not found
make: *** [makefile:126: src/accessdesc.o] Error 127

this is luma:

C:\Users\GODREBORN\Desktop\Luma3DS-10.3>make
fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

nm, I got it. I had to add the compiler to path through ming64, then use make deps in the makerom folder followed by make, then cut and pasted the makerom.exe to the tools folder in devkitpro. after that, I used make on the luma folder, success:

got it to build in linux as well, after installing libctru, and copying makerom for linux into the right folder (II didn't realize you didn't have to build it) :

I'm impressed it's even possible to compile Luma on Windows, it shows that mingw is really handy when it comes to cross compilation, although I would personally use WSL as you did, it must be easier.

I always try to compile a project on both windows and linux, unless it's impossible on windows or something.
