The library is cross-platform: it can used on on CPU or on an embedded platform with the Arduino framework.

It is written in pure C++ and all the sources are located in the /src subdirectory. This folder contains both the header files (.h) and the implementation files (.cpp, .inl).

The library has no any external dependency.

Using TGX on a microcontroller (Arduino)

• With the Arduino IDE.

  Install the library directly from within the library manager of the IDE: [Sketch] > [Include Library] > [Manage Libraries] and then search for 'TGX' and install the latest version.

• With PlaftormIO.

  Install the library directly from within VSCode/PlaftormIO: [PIO Home] > [libraries] then search for 'TGX' , select it and press [add to Project].

Using TGX on a desktop computer (Windows/Linux/MacOS)

There are two options:

• Manually adding the library code directly to a project.
  

  1. Copy all the files from the \src directory directly into the target project directory.
  2. Reference all TGX's .cpp files to be compiled together with the project's source files.
     

• Building a library file.
  

  Alternatively, it is possible to build a standalone library file. A CMake configuration CMakeLists.txt is provided at the root of the library:
  

  1. Install CMake 3.10 (or later).
  2. Open a terminal/shell at the library root folder and type:
     • mkdir build
     • cd build
     • cmake ..
  3. Build the library using the generated project files.
     • On Windows. Open the Visual Studio solution file 'tgx.sln' and build the library from within the IDE.
     • On Linux/MacOS. Use command make to build the library.
       TGX can now be added to any project be appending TGX's /src subdirectory to the project's include path and adding the library to the linker.
