CMake Build Options

raylib is configurable and can be built in a variety of ways. Following is a listing of available CMake options and values, extracted from src/CMakeOptions.txt and src/config.h

You must set CUSTOMIZE_BUILD to ON in order for many of these options to apply.

TIP: You can use the curses UI provided by ccmake(1) for interactively configuring raylib.
