You need the following tools to build the library with the provided makefiles:

* GNU Make or a build tool that CMake supports.
* A C99 toolchain (compiler, linker, archiver). We actively test with GCC 5.4, Clang 3.8, IAR8 and Visual Studio 2013. More recent versions should work. Slightly older versions may work.
* Python 3 to generate the test code, and to generate sample programs in the development branch.
