What you need for this book

Since this book is built around the SFML library, you need to download and install it. You can get SFML at www.sfml-dev.org; the first chapter gives a brief installation guide.

In case you decide to recompile SFML yourself, you will also require the cross-platform build tool CMake, which can be downloaded from www.cmake.org.
