Building LÖVE from Source

If you want to make changes to the LÖVE source code, follow the instructions below:

Windows

Make sure you have CMake and Make installed. Clone and install emsdk

git clone https://github.com/emscripten-core/emsdk
cd emsdk

emsdk install 4.0.10
emsdk activate 4.0.10

Modify the paths to emsdk in the build_lovejs.bat file to the correct ones.

Clone the megasource-web and love-web source code:

git clone https://github.com/rozenmad/megasource-web
cd megasource-web
git clone https://github.com/rozenmad/love-web libs/love

Change the paths to emsdk and to the megasource directory in the build_lovejs.bat file to the correct ones.

When the process is complete, the love.js and love.wasm files in the lovejs_source\compat directory will be replaced.
