# How to build

## Requirements

- JDK 17+ (OpenJDK 17, Amazon Corretto 17, etc.)
- Gradle 8.x (wrapper included)

In Android Studio / IntelliJ: Settings → Build, Execution, Deployment → Build tools → Gradle → Gradle JDK → 17.

## Build the library

```bash
./gradlew core:build
```

Lisa Engine is a single-module Gradle project (`core`) — there are no platform launchers in this repository. Desktop, Android, iOS, and other launchers live in the consuming game.

## Use as a library

Lisa Engine is consumed via Gradle `includeBuild`. Clone it alongside your game:

```
Projects/
  LisaEngine/
  YourGame/
```

In your game's `settings.gradle`:

```groovy
includeBuild '../LisaEngine'
```

In your game's `core/build.gradle` dependencies:

```groovy
api "net.dynart.lisa:core"
```
