## Compile Intel Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Firmware kexts easily

Chris1111 has created a helpful little app called [**Wifi-Intel-KextsBuilder**](https://github.com/chris1111/Wifi-Intel-KextsBuilder) which automates the process of compiling Intel Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Firmware kexts. It only requires you to have Xcode installed and will handle the rest on its own once you run it.

Wifi-Intel-KextsBuilder downloads the source code of itlwm, IntelBluetoothFirmware, MacKernelSDK and Lilu and then compiles itlwm, AirportItlwm and Intel Bluetooth Firmware kexts. They will be located under "Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Developer/Wifi-Intel-KextsBuilder/ in the "build/Release" folder of each repo.

These kexts won't be slimmed like the ones present in my EFI folders but at least you now have a simple option to compile these kexts on your own in the future.
