Compilation

Warning: This guide is accurate for MuseScore version 3.x, but has not been updated for version 4.0 and later. For instructions on building current versions of MuseScore Studio, please see the wiki on GitHub .

Compile instructions (All Platforms) - read this first and then see the pages below for instructions specific to your platform.

Windows

• Compile instructions (Windows - MinGW) - Git
• Compile instructions (Windows - Visual Studio)
• Compile instructions (Windows - MSVC with Qt Creator)

Mac

• Compile instructions (macOS) - Git
• Compile instructions (MU4 macOS with QtCreator) - Git

Linux & BSD

• Compile instructions (Linux & BSD) - Git

Most instructions for Linux and BSD are the same regardless of which distribution you use, but you'll need to read the distribution-specific instructions below for any aspects that are unique to your distribution (usually only the method of installing dependencies). If no page exists for your distribution then feel free to create one - use the closest matching distribution as a starting point. If the instructions for one distribution work for a different one (or only require a few minor changes) then just add a note to the top of that page rather than creating a new one.
