The project's homepage is http://qt-project.org/wiki/qbs

Supported Platforms
===================

Building the sources requires Qt 4.8.0 or later.

Build Instructions
==================
Prerequisites:
   * Qt 4.8.0 or later
   * On Windows:
     -  MinGW or Visual Studio

The installed toolchains have to match the one Qt was compiled with.

You can build qbs with

    cd $SOURCE_DIRECTORY
    qmake -r

Installation ("make install") is not needed. It is however possible, using

    make install INSTALL_ROOT=$INSTALL_DIRECTORY
