# Boytacean SDL
## Build
To be able to run the `cargo build` one must first install a local version of `vcpkg` using:
```bash
cargo install cargo-vcpkg
cargo vcpkg build
cargo build
```
Then you can use the following command to build and run Boytacean SDL:
```bash
cargo build
cargo run
```
To reload the code continuously use the cargo watch tool:
```bash
cargo install cargo-watch
cargo watch -x run
```
There are some feature flags that control the verbosity of the emulator to run in debug mode use:
```bash
cargo run --features debug
```
