 # Building BioGTK
 
-- Clone the repository then run the following dotnet build script based on your platform and CPU.
+- Clone the BioGTK repository then create a new .NET8 project named "BioGTKApp"
+	- Add the following code to Program.cs
+```
+using Gtk;
+using BioGTK;
+using Application = Gtk.Application;
+
+namespace BioGTKApp
+{
+    internal static class Program
+    {
+        /// <summary>

 # Building Micro-SAM ONNX models.
 - Recommended to just download the pre-built models from [Zenodo releases](https://zenodo.org/records/14343909). Due to the large amount of dependencies etc. required to install & run Micro-SAM repository.
