-To build it yourself follow these steps (changes / suggestions welcome):    
-1.  Download the OBS Studio sources.  
-2.  Move the sources of this plugin to the the frontend-plugins folder in the OBS sources ("obs-studio/UI/frontend-plugins/SceneSwitcher" for example).  
-3.  Edit the CMakeLists.txt in the frontend-plugins folder to include the SceneSwitcher sources directory by appending the line "add_subdirectory(SceneSwitcher)".  
-4.  Build OBS Studio and the plugin library will be located in the respective subdirectory of the rundir inside your build folder. (for example ~/obs-studio/build/rundir/RelWithDebInfo/obs-plugins/64bit/advanced-scene-switcher.so)  
+## Compiling
+### Prerequisites
+You'll need CMake and a working development environment for OBS Studio installed on your computer.
+
+### Windows
+In cmake-gui, you'll have to set these CMake variables :
+- **QTDIR** (path) : location of the Qt environment suited for your compiler and architecture
+- **LIBOBS_INCLUDE_DIR** (path) : location of the libobs subfolder in the source code of OBS Studio
+- **LIBOBS_LIB** (filepath) : location of the obs.lib file
+- **OBS_FRONTEND_LIB** (filepath) : location of the obs-frontend-api.lib file
+
+### Linux
+On Debian/Ubuntu :  
+```
+git clone https://github.com/WarmUpTill/SceneSwitcher.git
+cd SceneSwitcher
+mkdir build && cd build
+cmake -DLIBOBS_INCLUDE_DIR="<path to the libobs sub-folder in obs-studio's source code>" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..
+make -j4
+sudo make install
+```
+NOTE: The Linux version of this plugin is dependent on libXScrnSaver.
+
+### OS X
+```
+git clone https://github.com/WarmUpTill/SceneSwitcher.git
