 ### odin_compiler_defs.ps1
 
 Just variable declarations based on flags used with the odin compiler's CLI.

+# Linux

+Essentially equivalent scripts from the PS scripts used on windows were ported to bash. Tested in WSL ubuntu image (so far).
+
+#### Note on dependency packages
+
+Some dependencies are cloned directly into a created thirdparty directory.
+
+[harfbuzz](https://github.com/Ed94/odin_harfbuzz) is configured to pull & build the C++ library, it will use the MSVC toolchain (you can change it to use meson instead of preferred).  
+[freetype](https://github.com/Ed94/odin-freetype) package does not come with linux binaries.  
+[sokol](https://github.com/floooh/sokol) built using `build_sokol_library.ps`.  
+[sokol-tools](https://github.com/floooh/sokol-tools) used by `compile_sokol_shaders.ps1` to compile the glsl files into odin files for the sokol backend.
+
+Caveats:
+
+* The Freetype library's binary must be installed by the user ( Ex: `sudo apt install libfreetype6-dev` )
+* Sokol needs gl, x11, and alsa libs. The `build_sokol_library.sh` script has basic implementation listing which libraries those are for ubuntu.
