Hi Ferran, Welcome in the the great mixxx community, I am not around for so long but I can tell you there is a bunch of motivated and innovative people in here !
Regarding development environment, I personally use (and recommend) QtCreator on both linux and windows (never tried on Mac). It will allow you to easily navigate the code source (search engine and usage tracking are so great, plus of course all the Qt support, indent and in source help !). For the moment mixxx do not come with a .pro file that you can directly open in QtCreator but I developed a small tool that parse the mixxx source tree to create it on demand. Just let me know if you want to try it. Regarding the build process, you could refer to the wiki, all the information is there, from 'how to create an account on launchpad' to 'how ending with a fresh build on you local machine' ... I guess once you've done all that, you can discuss on this very list what you are interested in and start contributing to mixxx :) Yours, Thomas 2012/7/17 William Good <bkg...@gmail.com>: > On Tue, Jul 17, 2012 at 11:05 AM, Ferran Pujol Camins > <ferranpujolcam...@gmail.com> wrote: >> So to start the engines running, I'd would like to know what >> development tools or environment do you use to develop Mixxx and why >> (if there is a specific reason). >> Furthermore, any other help or suggestion will be welcome as well. >> > > Hi Ferran, > > Mixxx is definitely a great project to work on if you're looking for > something a bit larger than school projects and are in DJing -- you're > in the right place. > > To answer your question, the only real constant I'm aware of between > developers is bazaar, our version control system.
