These instructions explain how to set up the tools required to build **pokeemerald**, which assembles the source files into a ROM.
These instructions come with notes which can be expanded by clicking the "<i>Note...</i>" text.
In general, you should not need to open these unless if you get an error or if you need additional clarification.
If you run into trouble, ask for help on Discord or IRC (see [README.md](README.md)).

Windows has instructions for building with three possible terminals, providing 3 different options in case the user stumbled upon unexpected errors.

### Choosing where to store pokeemerald (WSL1)
