This project was made for Linux using SDL and OpenGl. It is up to you to satisfy these dependencies. A port for Windows and/or Mac may be considered in the future. Currently only an in-place 'install' is possible; why would you want more for a simple physics simulator? To build the project change into the src directory and run make. i.e. cd src/ make This will create the run_physics file located in the bin directory, which it will also create and setup. Simply execute this file to run the program. i.e. cd bin/ ./run_physics
