## One-time mandatory steps
Regardless of whether you want to build the app locally for yourself (not trusting the pre-built binaries) or test your changes before creating a PR, you have to run the following commands at least once:
1. Open a terminal.
2. Navigate to the `/app/Build` directory within the repository.
3. Run `dotnet run build` to build the entire app.
2. Install the Tauri CLI by running `cargo install --version 1.6.2 tauri-cli`.
3. Navigate to the `/app/Build` directory within the repository.
4. Run `dotnet run build` to build the entire app.
This is necessary because the build script and the Tauri framework assume that the .NET app is available as a so-called "sidecar." Although the sidecar is only necessary for the final release and shipping, Tauri requires it to be present during development as well.
