FreeType is a low level C library that only depends on the standard
C library with very few platform-dependent optimizations utilized at
build time. System libraries, such as zlib, Gzip, bzip2, Brotli,
build time. Any C89-compliant compiler should be able to compile
FreeType. System libraries, such as zlib, Gzip, bzip2, Brotli,
and libpng, might be used to handle compressed fonts or decode
embedded PNG glyphs.

A few other tools can be used to build FreeType. You can find
the corresponding instruction files in the FreeType root folder
or the builds/ sub-folder.

4. With an IDE Project File (e.g., for Visual Studio or CodeWarrior)
We provide a small number of `project files' for various IDEs to
automatically build the library as well. Note that these files
are not supported and only sporadically maintained by FreeType
developers, so don't expect them to work in each release.

or become obsolete.
To find them, have a look at the content of the `builds/<system>'
