Prerequisites

To build and run the PARA SDK, the following environment is required.

Item	Requirement	Rationale / Notes
Compiler	GCC with C++17 support	Para.cmake sets CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 17
Build tool	CMake 3.16+	Built with the PARA CMake module (Para.cmake); cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.16)
Running examples	tmux	Used in the split mode of examples-runner.sh (use --no-tui if unavailable)

The exact minimum GCC version is not specified because it may vary depending on the deployment environment. We recommend performing a build once to confirm it.

Once you are ready, start by reviewing the structure of the SDK → SDK Directory Layout
