How to build zotero 6 ?

s.bertrand · February 29, 2024

Hello,

I'm new here.

How can I build the zotero 6.0.30 version ?

The documentation seems to be for Zotero 7 (https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/client_coding/building_the_desktop_app) ?

Thanks,
dhmoclex.

You can look back in the wiki history, but you should just build Z7. It's much easier and plenty stable.

I did not find the procedure for Zotero 6 in the history.

Understood for Zotero 7, but the Windows procedure doesn't wook, I'll try later on my Linux machine.

Sorry, Z6 instructions are here: https://web.archive.org/web/20230519224840/https://www.zotero.org/support/dev/client_coding/building_the_standalone_client

For Z7 Windows, not sure what you mean by "doesn't work", but see the note at the top about WSL. I wouldn't bother trying to build on Windows itself.
