Merge bitcoin/bitcoin#30871: build: Add more cmake presets
f15e817811e328423ea489870ead089128a6ef8c build: add more CMake presets (dev-mode, libfuzzer, libfuzzer-nosan) (Pieter Wuille)

Pull request description:

  Add three more cmake presets to the project-wide `CMakePresets.json` file:
  * `dev-mode`: enables all features and dependencies
  * `libfuzzer`: builds for fuzzing with libfuzzer and the typical sanitizers (but not the optional ones that require suppressions) enabled.
  * `libfuzzer-nosan`: builds for fuzzing with libfuzzer and no (other) sanitizers

  ... and then uses these in some documentation.

Bitcoin Core

Setup

Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions, which requires a few hundred gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.

To download Bitcoin Core, visit bitcoincore.org.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Bitcoin Core on your native platform.

Unix

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

  • bin/bitcoin-qt (GUI) or
  • bin/bitcoind (headless)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run bitcoin-qt.exe.

macOS

Drag Bitcoin Core to your applications folder, and then run Bitcoin Core.
