Looks cool; does anyone happen to know which platforms it supports? The emphasis on game development makes me fear it's Windows-only, but I couldn't find anything relevant in the README.
for those like me, who couldn't build the documentation :
```
docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/home philipptempel/docker-ubuntu-tug-texlive
```
maybe I am dreaming, but it would be great if we could use this in a webassembly app
It's fairly simple to add support for new platforms. I've used Tracy on every major game console, none of which are officially supported coz of the walled off SDKs.

I really dislike this tone and trend in engineering projects - I understand cross-platform developer frustration as much as the next guy, but snide, cynical comments come across as unprofessional and naive. If it truly bothers you so much, don't support those platforms. Be the change you want to see.
I'm just trying to find out how to build your project on a free OS because you only distribute binaries for Windows. Not parse a manifesto.
Why should a free tool need to come across as "professional" though. There's enough boring "professionalism" in the documentation of commercial tools where the legal department makes double-sure that nothing slips through.
There's absolutely nothing wrong with the authors putting their personal opinion into the documentation of their tool and voicing their frustration about shortcomings of "professional" platforms they have no power to change anyway.
I was trying to phrase my thoughts in a way that didn't come off as too aggressive, "professional" was the first word that came to mind. Maybe "civil" is a better word?
I recently came to a realization about negativity in my communication with others in technical discussion and documentation, using a lot of similar language to the authors', and after looking in the mirror a bit I found I was being a jackass that prevented growth of projects that I work on, professionally or otherwise. Don't take that to mean anything about this work, it's a comment on myself.
If I come off as a hypocrite, I apologize. I was just trying to highlight that I dislike negativity in documentation because it's not nice to poop on someone else's work. But its paradoxical to highlight that in others' work without seeming like you're pooping on it.
It sounds to me more like he's pooping on a company's policy rather than a person's work (the policy itself is quite poopy and thus fair game to complain about IMO).
If you don't support the platform somebody else will complain OR send you some code to do so, at which point you're going to be seen as bad if you don't include it anyway.
It is cynic, but for platforms such as Android or iOS it is fully deserved IMHO. You'd _want_ to support these because, in all likelihood, you _have_ to work with them.
If you want to use the profiler client, you just add `TracyClient.cpp` to your build target (page 9 of the manual / somewhat common sense). If you want to build the profiler (or any other tool), there are Makefiles for unix: https://github.com/wolfpld/tracy/tree/master/profiler/build/...

Funny enough, you're also showing your frustration with cynical comments which come across as unprofessional and naive.
