At work we have to compile everything from source because compliance, and Grafana is one of the harder ones to get right. There used to be good documentation for it a few versions back but I can't seem to find it lately. Is there any good documentation on how to get Grafana compiled from source?

Checkout the contribute folder on GitHub. Here is the developer guide:

I just built it from sources because of the same reason. What are the issues on your side?
I've got a complicated proxy setup to contend with and have to build via Jenkins on some older Linux boxes, so it's just trial and error. You have a build script you'd be willing to share?
We are building from source with Docker. Without using Docker, you could try to just run the commands in https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/master/Dockerfile
Please let us know and/or open an GitHub issue describing if there are any certain part/step making it hard to build from source. Thanks
