## Build instructions
0. Open Powershell.
1. Make sure you've downloaded submodules:
```
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update
```
2. Execute Libraries/fetch.ps1.
3. Open Libraries/wx/build/msw/wx\_vc17.sln with Visual Studio 2022.
4. Build x64/Release.
1. The build configuration is in the top. By default it's probably Debug/x64.
2. To build: ctrl+shift+B
5. Open GUI/GUI.sln with Visual Studio 2022.
6. Build x64/Release.
7. Run package.ps1 from powershell.
## High level design
* The GUI is written using wxWidgets.
* Python executes core business logic. We can't migrate away since
there's no CUDA-enabled Whisper implementation available in a good
systems programming language.
* To skirt licensing complexity, we distribute an embedded python
that's hacked up to allow installing packages via pip. We use this
to install packages at runtime (like a net installer), so we don't
actually distribute all our transitive dependencies. This also keeps
the initial package size small.
## C++ Style
Follow the Google C++ style guide. This is not absolutely strict but
it will be used to settle arguments.
https://google.github.io/styleguide/cppguide.html
This should get you 80% of the way there:
* When in doubt, use K&R style
* 2 space indents
* Class members `look_like_this_`
* Functions and methods `LookLikeThis()`
* Local variables `look_like_this`
* Global constexprs `kLookLikeThis`
Consistent style reduces cognitive burden. Follow it for the benefit of
your peers.
## How the embedded python environment works
I'm distributing an embeddable version of python from the official
python website. It's modified so that packages are installed under
Python/Lib/site-packages, instead of the usual filesystem paths.
To bootstrap pip & fetch the dependencies needed:
```
cd TaSTT
./Resources/Python/python.exe Resources/Python/get-pip.py
./Resources/Python/python.exe -m pip install $YOUR\_PACKAGE\_HERE
```
The `future` package imports extra modules, and the embedded python
search path needs to be told where that is. For that reason, we also
redistribute the `future` package in source format.
This is logically what the GUI does internally when it creates the
python environment.
