ForeFire is currently only available in Linux.
First, clone the repository locally:

Go to the repository directory:
cd firefront
Run the install script:
sh install-forefire.sh
Run the following commands:
apt-get update
apt install build-essential -y
apt install libnetcdf-dev libnetcdf-cxx-legacy-dev -y
apt install cmake -y
To install:
- GNU/g++ compiler
- NetCDF Library and NetCDF-C++ legacy
- CMake build tool
Use your distribution's package manager to install:
- GNU/g++ compiler

- CMake build tool
CMake is the default build tool of ForeFire. To build with CMake run the script
sh cmake-build.sh
Or, alternatively, the individual commands:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make
More information on building with Scons is available here.
A sample Dockerfile can allow to build a Docker image with
docker build . -t forefire
CMake is used in this build.
To run this image and interactively acces the continer use
docker run -it forefire bash
To make the program executable from eveywhere (during the session) Add the bin folder to path
export PATH=$PATH:`pwd`/bin
If you want to change it permanently, paste
export PATH="</path/to/file>:$PATH"
at the end of your ~/.bashrc file. The file can be edited with
nano ~/.bashrc
for example
export PATH="/path/to/repository/firefront/bin:$PATH"
After building, you will find the ForeFire interpreter in the bin directory. You can test it to see if it was correctly installed:
forefire -version
Or simply:
forefire
