+
+On Fedora (Qt5):
+
+```
+# dnf install cmake gcc-c++ qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qttools-static qt5-qtsvg-devel
+```
+
+On Fedora (Qt6):
+
+```
+# dnf install cmake gcc-c++ qt6-qtbase-devel qt6-qttools-devel qt6-qtsvg-devel
+```
+
+### Build Instructions
+
+```
+$ mkdir build
+$ cd build
+$ cmake ../
+$ make
+```
+
+The above commands run from the project root will build the application.
+
+The cmake command can be substituted with `cmake -DUSE_QT5=yes ../` to explicitly use Qt5 over Qt6 or `cmake -DUSE_QT6=yes ../` to explicitly use Qt6 over Qt5.
+
+If using ninja instead of Makefiles, run `ninja` instead of `make`
+
+### Installation
+
+```
+# make install
+```
+
+The above command will install the application, as well as a desktop entry (if on Linux)
+
+Building installer packages using CPack is also supported for the following package formats:
+
+- DEB (`cpack -G DEB`)
+- RPM (`cpack -G RPM`)
