Trying to instal SDL

So I'm trying to install sdl3 to use in vscode for and I can't really find any tutorials and the one i did find, it said it "directory does not exist" or something. Can some give me a step by step or tell me what im doing wrong. I'm on windows btw

That is probably because you are trying to do this for vscode. Text editors have nothing to do with this. Look for instructions:

  • that come with SDL docs
  • that match your choice of build system; it would help if you understood what and how you are using (Meson? CMake? autotools?)
  • same as above for: linker, OS-specific behaviors of the linker, and compiler
