**Advanced options:**
* Parallel build: run `make -j<number of threads>` instead of `make`.
+* Statically linked release build: run `make release-static`.
* Debug build: run `make build-debug`.
* Test suite: run `make test-release` to run tests in addition to building. Running `make test-debug` will do the same to the debug version.
* Building with Clang: it may be possible to use Clang instead of GCC, but this may not work everywhere. To build, run `export CC=clang CXX=clang++` before running `make`.

+### On FreeBSD:
+
+The project can be built from scratch by following instructions for Unix and Linux above.
+
+We expect to add Monero into the ports tree in the near future, which will aid in managing installations using ports or packages.

## Building Documentation
Monero developer documentation uses Doxygen, and is currently a work-in-progress.
