Adds build instructions for linux, could be expanded with windows and android but I do not know how to compile for those systems. Also added some text for what the DMI and EVC is, please correct me if its to basic or wrong.

That can work but it's not optimal. In linux you should typically install the dependencies (SDL, etc.) using your package manager instead of compiling from source. That's because shared libraries need to be installed, they aren't loaded from the executable directory as in windows. Also it lacks the install step. There's also a build script at the build/ folder that can be used.

Regarding the build dependencies, you also need a C++ compiler, not just CMake and Git.

The 'git clone' step is missing the submodule setup.
