## Build from source
Create a new Fedora-29 AppVM (or reuse an existing one). Open a terminal.
Clone this Git repository and run the `build-with-docker.sh` script:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/docker /home/user/docker

Note: the object files are stored in the `_build` directory to speed up incremental builds.
If you change the dependencies, you will need to delete this directory before rebuilding.
If you want to build on Debian, follow the instructions at [docker.com][debian-docker] to get Docker and then run `sudo ./build-with-docker.sh` as above.
It's OK to install the Docker package in a template VM if you want it to remain
after a reboot, but the build of the firewall itself should be done in a regular AppVM.
You can also build without Docker, as for any normal Mirage unikernel;
see [the Mirage installation instructions](https://mirage.io/wiki/install) for details.
The Docker build fixes the versions of the libraries it uses, ensuring that you will get
exactly the same binary that is in the release. If you build without Docker, it will build
against the latest versions instead (and the hash will therefore probably not match).
However, it should still work fine.
## Deploy
If you want to deploy manually, unpack `mirage-firewall.tar.bz2` in dom0, inside `/var/lib/qubes/vm-kernels/`. e.g. (if `dev` is the AppVM where you built it):
