## Build from source
### build dep
* git
* make
* build-essential

### server dependencies
* libssl-dev
* libsqlite3-dev

### build
When all dependencies are installed, the build can be done with a few single command lines:

```bash
mkdir antd
cd antd
# build with all plugins
wget -O - https://apps.lxsang.me/script/antd | bash -s "lua ph7 wterm wvnc"
```
The script will ask you where you want to put the binaries (should be an absolute path, otherwise the build will fail) and the default HTTP port for the server config.
