    19 You can build and install WPE WebKit from a release tarball the same as you would any other CMake module. The only trick is that you must pass the CMake option -DPORT=WPE. For example, to do a release build with debug info and install the result:
     19To build WPE WebKit, you need to install two dependencies first (both available [https://wpewebkit.org/releases/ here]):
     20
     21- **libwpe** (previously known as libWPEBackend): this is the base library for WPE abstractions to provide platform EGL surfaces and handling input;
     22- **WPEBackend-fdo**: this is the reference WPE backend implementation, using FreeDesktop.Org technologies and used for testing upstream WPE.
     23
     24Both of these libraries can be compiled and installed as usual using CMake. For example, for a release build with debug info:
     25
     26{{{
     27$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo -GNinja
     28$ ninja
     29$ sudo ninja install
     30}}}
     31
     32You can then build and install WPE WebKit similarly. The only trick is that you must pass the CMake option -DPORT=WPE. For example, to do a release build with debug info and install the result:
