# Multiconvert

A comprehensive C++ unit conversion tool supporting multiple measurement types including:

- Physical units (length, mass, volume, time)

- Temperature

- Speed and Energy

- Digital storage

- Electrical measurements

- Geometric calculations

## Dependencies (only if you intend to build/compile from source, recommended when testing contributions)

To build and run this project, you will need the following:

- **A C++ Compiler** that supports C++ 17 or later (e.g. `g++`, `clang/clang++`, `MSVC` etc.)

- **CMake**: Version 3.16.0 or higher

Note: This project should be cross-compatible since `CMakeLists.txt` is set to automatically detect any compatible compilers.

**Please make sure `CMakeLists.txt` is located in the same directory as the source file during compilation due to the use of relative paths.**

### Installation Instructions

1. **Install C++ Compiler and CMake**:

   - **Windows**: Install a C++ compiler such as MinGW or Visual Studio, and download CMake from [CMake.org](https://cmake.org/download/).

   - **Linux**: Use your package manager to install a C++ compiler and CMake. For example:

     ```bash

     sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake

     ```

   - **macOS**: Install a C++ compiler and CMake via [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/):

     ```bash

     brew install gcc cmake

     ```

   **Please note that all releases since v0.9.0-alpha only include binaries (`.exe`, `.deb` etc.) and/or archives (`.zip`, `.tar.gz`)

   after v0.9.0-alpha, the source code will be added as file archives to the release.**
