**Steps**:

Using CMake, select the preset ``Development config for XXXXX (64-bit)`` based on your operating system. Alternatively, use one of these commands in a terminal (e.g., Developer PowerShell for VS 2022 on Windows):
Open Visual Studio Community 2022 and select open project (Using CMake option).

- ``cmake --preset debug-win64`` (Windows)
- ``cmake --preset debug-lnx64`` (Linux)
- ``cmake --preset debug-osx64`` (macOS)
This will prompt you to select the CMakeList.txt file of your project.

.. warning::
If you encounter an error (e.g., "The C++ compiler is not able to compile a simple test program" or a missing `rc.exe` issue), you may be missing critical components in your Visual Studio installation. To resolve this, uninstall all Visual Studio components, then return to the "Installing Visual Studio 2022 Community with C++ for Developers" section and reinstall from scratch, ensuring all required workloads and components (e.g., Windows 10 SDK, MSVC v143) are selected.
Select the CMakeList.txt file located in the root of your ``server`` directory and wait about 5 - 10 minutes for this to build.

Once built, you’ll find a binary named ``gimuserverw`` in the ``server\standalone_frontend`` folder. This is your development server executable, which you can run and debug to implement new features.
