+# Building
+
+The Micro BGP Suite uses [Meson](https://mesonbuild.com/) to manage its build
+process.
+
+The basic steps to configure and build `lonetix` and every utility, with
+debug options enabled, is:
+```sh
+$ git clone https://git.doublefourteen.io/bgp/ubgpsuite.git
+$ cd ubgpsuite
+$ meson build && cd build
+$ ninja
+```
+
+In case you want to perform a release build, enable the release configuration,
+like this:
+```sh
+$ git clone https://git.doublefourteen.io/bgp/ubgpsuite.git
+$ cd ubgpsuite
+$ meson --buildtype=release build && cd build
+$ ninja
+```
+
+Or, alternatively, run the following command inside an already existing `build`
+directory:
+```sh
+$ meson configure -Dbuildtype=release
+$ ninja
+```
+
+Many build options are available to configure `µbgpsuite` build, you can use:
+```sh
+$ meson configure
+```
+
+to list them.
+
+# Documentation
+
+The Micro BGP Suite uses [Doxygen](https://www.doxygen.org/index.html) to document its API.
+
+If you have `doxygen` installed in your system you can use:
+
+```sh
+$ ninja doc
+```
+
+inside `build` directory to generate Doxygen documentation.
