Build

Run ./build.sh or ./build.cmd to see the build options.

When using VSCode, you can also run the build tasks from the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) by typing Run Task and selecting the task you want to run.

We also configured several debug configurations that you can use from the debug panel (Ctrl+Shift+D). This is useful as you can attach the debugger to the Fable compiler process to check what's going on.
