#### Running
Meson requires that you have a source directory and a build directory

the current directory and autodetect what you mean. This allows you to
do things like this:
`cd source_root; mkdir builddir; cd builddir; meson ..`
or
`cd source_root; mkdir builddir; meson builddir`
```console
cd <source root>
meson builddir
```
To compile, cd into your build directory and type `ninja`. To run unit
tests, type `ninja test`.
Install is the same but it can take an extra argument:
`DESTDIR=/destdir/path ninja install`
`DESTDIR` can be omitted. If you are installing to system directories,
you may need to run this command with sudo.
