### Cross Compiling
-You can also cross-compile static binaries on Linux for Windows and macOS with the `depends` system. Go to `contrib/depends` and type:

The required packages are the names for each toolchain on apt. Depending on your distro, they may have different names.
-Then go back to the source dir and type:
-* ```cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=`pwd`/contrib/depends/<chosen triplet>/share/toolchain.cmake```
-Where <chosen triplet> is one of the above mentioned targets.

-Using `depends` might also be easier to compile Monero on Windows than using MSys. Activate Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) with a distro (for example Ubuntu), install the apt build-essentials and follow the `depends` steps as depicted above.
