RE2 should build and run on any modern Unix clone with GCC or Clang.

git clone https://code.googlesource.com/re2

cd re2

make test

make install

make testinstall

(On BSD systems, use gmake instead of make.)

Bazel and CMake are also supported. The latter should enable generation of MSVC and Xcode projects. Patches are welcome!

For documentation on how to use RE2, see the comment at the top of re2/re2.h.
