Hello! I'm pretty excited with Alhambra and would like to run the project locally and maybe help extending it, but I couldn't set up the project or anything, could you please add a Read Me with instructions and requirements to set up and run the project?

Hi,

Sorry for the late response. Here are some instructions on how to setup the environment required to compile the project:

1. You need Visual Studio 2017. I used the community edition version.
2. You need to install the Qt5 SDK. You need to install the 64-bit SDK as the solution is 64-bit.
3. You need to set an environment variable pointing to the Qt5 SDK. The name is QT5_DIR. For example, I set mine to: C:\Tools\Qt5\5.12.1\
4. Open the provided solution and build. It will copy the necesary Qt5 DLL in the output folder so the program can run.

I hope that will clears things up on how to compile the project.

I currently do not consider the code very clean. I started slowly, but by the end I rushed things a bit to get it working. One day I'll continue modifying it to make the code more elegant, especially the UI.
