| 2 | |
| 3 | **Note**: it is **not possible** to build a binary functionally |
| 4 | equivalent to a Chromecast. This is to build a single-page content |
| 5 | embedder with similar functionality to Cast products. |
| 6 | |
| 7 | ## Prerequisites |
| 8 | |
| 9 | * See the [Linux build prerequisites](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux_build_instructions_prerequisites.md) |
| 10 | |
| 11 | ## Setting Up |
| 12 | |
| 13 | * Cast Linux build only: [Linux build |
| 14 | setup](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/linux_build_instructions.md) |
| 15 | is sufficient. |
| 16 | * Cast Linux and Android builds: follow the [Android build |
| 17 | setup](https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/android-build-instructions) |
| 18 | instructions. |
