Overview:
Source code is the basic code for a program before taking into account what system it is going to run on. The program won't run unless the files are first organized into the right directories and in a language that your system can use. You need a program to do that for you. Usually you need to do the compiling process through a terminal (console) with typed commands such as cmake, make, install, etc
Generally the Puppy systems don't come with a program to make that happen. You need a compiling program to do that, for example devx_slacko_5.7.0.sfs. Different code writers have different procedures in compiling. So you need to know what method they use to know which commands to use.
