# Packaging
[![Packaging status](https://repology.org/badge/vertical-allrepos/ncspot.svg)](https://repology.org/project/ncspot/versions)
## Compilation Instructions
ncspot makes use of the standard Cargo build system for everything. To compile a release version,
execute `cargo build --release` in the terminal from the project root. The executable file can be
found at `target/release/ncspot`. For detailed build instructions, have a look at [the developer
documentation](/doc/developers.md).
Additional features can be included by appending them to the build command. A list of all the
available features can be found in the [Cargo.toml](/Cargo.toml) under the `[features]` table. To
activate a feature, include its name like `cargo build --release --features feature1,feature2,...`.
To disable the default features, add `--no-default-features` to the command.
