## Build

_Instructions for developers_

### Linux

1. `cargo build`

### Windows

OpenCV is a dependency and it requires build tools.

1. Install vcpkg

2. `vpgkg install llvm opencv4`

3. Copy `opencv_world4xx.dll` to `.\target\debug`

4. `cargo build`

If you already have llvm, just add LLVM binaries to your PATH. It takes much time to install it with vcpkg.

### Mac OS

Please try and tell me if it works (I have no Mac).
