+## Building Skia dependency
+
+### Linux, OS X, BSD
+
+Building aseprite with [skia](https://skia.org) as a back-end may require building from
+source since most package repositories don't package skia (as for April 2016).
+
+For "always up to date" info on building skia across platforms, see the
+[skia quickstart](https://skia.org/user/quick) and select the OS you are building for.
+
+Grab [depot tools](https://www.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/install-depot-tools):
+
+    git clone 'https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git' ~/.depot_tools
+
+Add depot tools to your `PATH` to `~/.bashrc`, `~/.zshrc`, etc:
+
+    export PATH=`pwd`/depot_tools:"$PATH"
+
+Clone skia
+
+    git clone 'https://skia.googlesource.com/skia'
+    cd skia
+
+Checkout chrome/m50:
+
+    git checkout chrome/m50
+
+Set terminal to build without graphic support
+
+    export GYP_DEFINES='skia_gpu=0'
+
+Sync and create ninja project file
+
+    python bin/sync-and-gyp
+    ninja -C out/Debug dm
