### Dependencies
In order to get GTK from Git installed on your system, you need to have the
required versions of all the GTK dependencies; typically, this means a
recent version of GLib, Cairo, Pango, and ATK, as well as the platform
specific dependencies for the windowing system you are using (Wayland, X11,
Windows, or macOS).
required versions of all the software dependencies required by GTK; typically,
this means a recent version of GLib, Cairo, Pango, and ATK, as well as the
platform-specific dependencies for the windowing system you are using (Wayland,
X11, Windows, or macOS).
The core dependencies for GTK are:
- [GLib, GObject, and GIO](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib)
- [Cairo](http://cairographics.org)
- [Pango](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango)
- [GdkPixbuf](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gdk-pixbuf)
- [Epoxy](https://github.com/anholt/libepoxy)
- [ATK](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/atk)
- [Graphene](https://github.com/ebassi/graphene)
GTK will attempt to download and build some of these dependencies if it
cannot find them on your system.
Additionally, you may want to look at projects that create a development
environment for you, like [jhbuild](https://wiki.gnome.org/HowDoI/Jhbuild)
and [gvsbuild](https://github.com/wingtk/gvsbuild).
