     26 
     27 1) Copy `config.def.h` to `config.h` and modify it to suit your needs.
     28 2) Run `make` to build `sowm`.
     29 3) Copy it to your path or run `make install`.
     30     - `DESTDIR` and `PREFIX` are supported.
     31 4) (Optional) Apply patch with `git apply patches/patch-name`
     32     - In case of applying multiple patches, it has to be done **manually**.
     33 
     34 If you are using GDM, save the following to `/usr/share/xsessions/sowm.desktop`. It is still recommended to start `sowm` from `.xinitrc` or through your own xinit implementation
