# mp-build | MatterLinux package build scripts
The package build scripts for MatterLinux package system. These scripts
are used for building and creating packages.

### Usage 
To create an package source directory, you can use the `mp-new`
script:
```bash
mp-new <name>_<version>
```
This will create all the required source files, all templated
according to the package name and the version you specify.

After editing the source files, you can build the package by
using the `mp-build` script:
```bash
mp-build /path/to/package
```
When the build is completed, the package archive will be created
inside the `/path/to/package/dist` directory.

You can also specify different build options, to list these
options you can run:
```bash
mp-build --help
```
