# Building Krita with MSYS2
**Please note that this is an unsupported, best-effort configuration.
Use it at your own risk.**
## Requirements
Use the MINGW64, CLANG64 or UCRT64 flavors. Install the following components
(change the `x86_64` architecture to your own):
- Your flavor's compiler:
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain`
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-toolchain`
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-toolchain`
- CMake:
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake`
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-cmake`
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-cmake`
If using the CLANG64 flavor, set the `CC` and `CXX` environment variables:
```
set CC=x86_64-w64-mingw32-cc
set CXX=x86_64-w64-mingw32-c++
```
If you want AVIF/HEIF support, before continuing, install:
- Rust:
- **Stock Rust is not recommended with UCRT64 and CLANG64. Use the MSYS2-provided binaries.**
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-rust`
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-cmake`
- `pacman -S mingw-w64-ucrt-x86_64-cmake`
- Meson and Ninja:
- Issue `pip install -U meson setuptools ninja` on your Python installation, **not** on your MSYS2 shell.
- For more information, see the README.md in this directory, section "Prerequisites", item 4.
