Getting started

HiGHS can be cloned from GitHub with the command

git clone https://github.com/ERGO-Code/HiGHS.git

Building HiGHS from source code

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

• Clang clang
• GNU g++
• Intel icc
• Microsoft MSVC

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 direcory. 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
