If you’re familiar with TypeScript, the [Theia IDE](https://theia-ide.org/), and if you want to contribute to the
project, you should be able to build the Arduino IDE locally.
Please refer to the [Theia IDE prerequisites](https://github.com/theia-ide/theia/blob/master/doc/) documentation for the setup instructions.

## Notes for Linux contributors
These are based on a XUbuntu 22.04 LTS system.
You will need the following dependencies:

- Nodejs-14.0 or up
- Dependencies for node-native-keymap:

```sudo apt-get install -y g++ gcc make python2.7 pkg-config libx11-dev libxkbfile-dev libsecret-1-dev```

Yarn will then download additional dependencies automatically and start the build process. The initial setup and build with yarn takes less than 5 minutes on an AMD Athlon 200GE.

## Notes for macOS contributors
Beginning in macOS 10.14.5, the software [must be notarized to run](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/notarizing_macos_software_before_distribution). The signing and notarization processes for the Arduino IDE are managed by our Continuous Integration (CI) workflows, implemented with GitHub Actions. On every push and pull request, the Arduino IDE is built and saved to a workflow artifact. These artifacts can be used by contributors and beta testers who don't want to set up a build system locally.
For security reasons, signing and notarization are disabled for workflow runs for pull requests from forks of this repository. This means that macOS will block you from running those artifacts.
