====== Installation ======
The SpeedTree Engine installation is a simple zip/archive file that can be placed anywhere. The installed folder hierarchy is shown below.

For developing with the Engine library, you’ll just need the **speedtree_engine.h** header file found in **include/** and:

  * __Linux:__ **libspeedtree_engine_v1.0.so** in **bin/linux/**.
   
  * __Windows:__ **speedtree_engine_v1.0.dll** or **speedtree_engine_v1.0_d.dll** in **bin/win64/** as well as **speedtree_engine_v1.0.lib** or **speedtree_engine_v1.0_d.lib** in **lib/win64/**.

The **source/** folder contains sample use code (not the source code to the Engine library itself), including IDV’s [[test_suite|test suite]] used to verify the library’s correctness. The **test_suite/** folder itself holds the data used by the test suite program.
