You will need to compile the project in order to run the current version of the branch you're looking at. In other words, we do not always have an executable version of the project packed along with everything else. So, it's up to you to do some extra work in order to reach that point.

Aside from code performance and functionality, we care about Code Style as well, it's important that you check it out, as, during PR approvals, abiding to those rules is also taken into consideration. Refusing to comply with those will result in forced pushes from project admins.
