 ## Building
 
-Windows and Linux binaries are available for each [release](https://github.com/keharriso/love-nuklear/releases).
+Windows binaries are available for each [release](https://github.com/keharriso/love-nuklear/releases).
 
 To build the library yourself, grab the code with:
 ```sh
 $ git clone --recursive git@github.com:keharriso/love-nuklear.git
 ```
 
-Compile with CMake (I recommend using the MinGW generator on Windows). You'll need to tell CMake where to find the LuaJIT headers and binaries. The end result is a native Lua module.
+Next, you need to compile the code to a native Lua module.
+
+### Compiling with CMake on Linux
+
+1. First, ensure you have the `cmake` and `luajit` packages installed.
+2. Create a new folder next to `love-nuklear` called `love-nuklear-build`.
+3. Open a terminal inside `love-nuklear-build`.
+4. Compile with
+```sh
+$ cmake ../love-nuklear
+$ make
+```
+5. Locate `nuklear.so` in the build folder.
+
+### Compiling with CMake and MinGW on Windows
+
+1. Install [CMake](https://cmake.org/download/) and [MinGW](http://mingw.org/) or [MinGW-w64](https://mingw-w64.org/doku.php).
+2. Download the source code for [LuaJIT](http://luajit.org/download.html).
+3. Open a command window inside the LuaJIT folder (the one that contains "README").
+4. Compile LuaJIT with
+```sh
+$ mingw32-make
+```
+5. Remember the path to `lua51.dll` inside the LuaJIT `src` folder.
+6. Run the CMake GUI.
+7. Click "Browse Source" at the top right, then select the `love-nuklear` folder.
+8. Enter a path for the build folder. It should be separate from the source folder.
+9. Press "Configure" at the bottom.
+10. Select "MinGW Makefiles" from the generator drop list, then click "Finish".
+11. You should receive an error. This is normal.
+12. Open the LUA tree by clicking the triangle on the left.
+13. Replace "LUA_INCLUDE_DIR-NOTFOUND" with the path to the LuaJIT `src` folder.
+14. Replace "LUA_LIBRARY-NOTFOUND" with the path to `lua51.dll` inside the LuaJIT `src` folder.
+15. Click "Generate" at the bottom.
+16. Open a command window inside the build folder.
+17. Compile with
+```sh
+$ mingw32-make
+```
+18. Locate `nuklear.dll` inside the build folder.
