+# Building LoveDOS
+Although LoveDOS provides precompiled binaries on the [releases
+page](releases), you may still wish to build the project's source if you want
+to make changes to the project.
+
+
+## Requirements
+LoveDOS depends on the following being installed before building:
+* **[Python2.7](https://www.python.org/)** is required by build.py, the build
+  script
+* **[DJGPP cross compiler](https://github.com/andrewwutw/build-djgpp)** 
+  is required to compile the source files
+
+
+## Building
+To compile you should clone the git repository or [download the .zip](#) of it.
+Once this is done you should open the build.py file in an editor and check to
+make sure the COMPILER variable is set to the correct command as to run DJGPP's
+gcc executable; change the COMPILER variable's value if it is not set to the
+correct value.
+
+Assuming the COMPILER variable is correctly set the script should be run:
+```
+./build.py
+```
+ The script will output the following line when it starts:
+```
+compiling...
+```
+Within a minute the script should finish and display the following line:
+```
+done
+```
+There should now be a file named "love.exe" in the "bin/" directory
