Noob question about makefile C++ project

Hello,

Trying to build this PROJECT from Github, it's a basic Bitcoin Trading bot.

I have installed Eclipse and i have no idea how to Build the EXE file, in the Read me file there are required libraries such "Crypto, Jansson, cURL, MySQL Client and sendEmail" i have a basic background knowledge with C but never learned how to use the "makefile" in C++.

Any tips would be appreciated guy

Thanks in advance
The Makefile allows an automated build process. It will link the required libraries and compile the source with the proper parameters. The required libraries/programs are the parameters indicated on line 7 of this page.

Short tutorial on Makefiles

Basically, just navigate into the cloned directory and type in "make" on your Unix system, as it's a part of the GNU toolchain.

You won't create an exe file, this code is not for windows systems. Also, there is literally nothing to learn, all you have to do is cd into the root directory of the project and type "make"
