CMake Build Options - raysan5/raylib GitHub Wiki

raylib is configurable and can be built in a variety of ways. Following is a listing of available CMake options and values, extracted from src/CMakeOptions.txt.

You must define -DCUSTOMIZE_BUILD=ON in order for many of these options to apply.

TIP: You can use the curses UI provided by ccmake(1) for interactively configuring raylib.
