Building HiGHS from source code

HiGHS uses CMake (minimum version 3.15) as a build system, and can use the following compilers

Instructions for building HiGHS from source code are in HiGHS/cmake/README.md.

The simplest setup is to build HiGHS in a build directory within the root directory. The name of the build folder is arbitrary but, assuming it is build, the sequence of commands is as follows

cd HiGHS
cmake -S. -B build 
cmake --build build --parallel
