Hi! I'm attempting to create a binary for the quickfeather but can't figure out how. The documentation on the Github repository is ambiguous. Any help is appreciated!

To create a binary for QuickFeather, start by cloning the repository and installing the necessary dependencies. Follow the build instructions provided in the README, which may involve running a command like make or npm run build. Use a tool like PyInstaller or pkg to package the application into a binary. Finally, check the output directory for the generatedslope ball binary and test it to ensure everything functions correctly. If you encounter issues, refer back to the documentation or share specific errors for further help.

Possible issues to check:
Is the correct GCC_PATH set in Makefile.inc or environment variable?
Are dependencies like make, python, and dfu-util installed?
Are you in the right directory when running make? It needs to be inside an app directory.

You don’t compile at the root of the repo; you compile from inside an app folder under qf_apps. The build system isn't global—it’s per-app.
