+## Setting Up Your Development Environment
+
+To contribute to Subconverter, you'll need to set up your development environment. Here's a brief overview:
+
+### Windows Build Instructions
+
+1. install the prerequisites:
+for example if you are using msys2 and mingw-w64 for compilation:
+```shell
+pacman -S base-devel git mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake mingw-w64-x86_64-pcre2 patch python
+```
+
+2. run script to initialize the project for development:
+```shell
+sh scripts/build.windows.dev.sh
+```
+
+3. debug the project with GDB:
+```shell
+gdb ./subconverter/subconverter.exe
+```
+or use VSCode with the following configuration:
+```json
+{
+    "name": "C/C++: g++.exe build and debug active file",
+    "type": "cppdbg",
+    "request": "launch",
+    "program": "${workspaceFolder}/subconverter/subconverter.exe",
+    "args": [],
+    "stopAtEntry": false,
+    "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}/subconverter/",
+    "environment": [],
+    "externalConsole": true,
+    "MIMode": "gdb",
+    "miDebuggerPath": "C:\\msys64\\mingw64\\bin\\gdb.exe",
+    "setupCommands": [
+        {
+        "description": "Enable pretty-printing for gdb",
+        "text": "-enable-pretty-printing",
+        "ignoreFailures": true
+        },
+        {
+        "description": "Set Disassembly Flavor to Intel",
+        "text": "-gdb-set disassembly-flavor intel",
+        "ignoreFailures": true
+        }
+    ],
+}
+```
+
+4. increamental build during development:
+
+```shell
+make -j4 && cp subconverter.exe subconverter/subconverter.exe
+```
+
+### macOS
+
+1. install the prerequisites:
+
+You should install all the following prequisites via your package manager.
+- cmake
+- pcre2
+- patch
+- python
+
+for macos run
+```shell
+brew reinstall rapidjson zlib pcre2 pkgconfig
+```
+
+1. run the script to initialize the project for development:
+
+```shell
+sh scripts/build.macos.dev.sh
+```
+
+2. increamental build during development:
+
+```shell
+make -j && cp subconverter subconverter/subconverter
+```
+
+3. run the executable for test:
+```shell
+./subconverter
+```
+
+Thank you for contributing to subconverter!
