+# Building
+
+This project uses the [Meson build system](https://mesonbuild.com/). The
+quickest way to build is:
+
+```sh
+# Initialise into the build/ directory, for a prefixed install into the
+# install/ directory
+meson . build -Dprefix=$PWD/install
+
+# Run the actual build
+ninja -C build
+
+# Install locally
+ninja -C build install
+
+# The libraries, headers, and pkg-config files are now in the install/
+# directory
+```
+
+# Feedback
 
 Patches, suggestions welcome. You can file an issue on our Gitlab
 [repository](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/webrtc-audio-processing/).
