## Build instructions for Xcode 10.1

**NB** These are outdated, please refer to [Building using Xcode][xcode] instructions.

### Prepare folder

Choose a folder for the future build, for example **/Users/user/TBuild**. It will be named ***BuildPath*** in the rest of this document. All commands will be launched from Terminal.

### Obtain your API credentials

You will require **api_id** and **api_hash** to access the Telegram API servers. To learn how to obtain them [click here][api_credentials].

### Download libraries

Download [**libiconv-1.15**](http://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/#downloading) and unpack to ***BuildPath*/Libraries/libiconv-1.15**

### Clone source code and prepare libraries

Go to ***BuildPath*** and run

### Building the project

Go to ***BuildPath*/tdesktop/Telegram** and run (using [your **api_id** and **api_hash**](#obtain-your-api-credentials))

    ./configure.sh -D TDESKTOP_API_ID=YOUR_API_ID -D TDESKTOP_API_HASH=YOUR_API_HASH -D DESKTOP_APP_USE_PACKAGED=OFF -D DESKTOP_APP_DISABLE_CRASH_REPORTS=OFF

Then launch Xcode, open ***BuildPath*/tdesktop/out/Telegram.xcodeproj** and build for Debug / Release.
