So you want to learn how to create an altcoin, your best bet is to use google to find something, or pay someone to do it for your.
Either way, it is not the good place for asking how to create a coin, especially when it is writen in blue with large size, i use to see this kind of post in the Altcoin discussion board. Maybe you will be more lucky there.

There is no one singular way that allows you to compile all altcoins ever. Each one is a separate project with its own way of building it. There is no unified build system that every coin uses which somehow magically allows you to compile every single coin with the exact same set of commands.

It all depends on the project you are building, whether they forked off of Bitcoin Core or some other altcoin, and when that happened. Usually they have documentation in a doc/ folder which will tell you how to compile the software, but that documentation may be out of date because a lot of people don't know how to write documentation or know that they need to update it as things change.

If you want specific instructions as to how to compile the source code for a specific coin, then you need to tell us what that coin is and allow us to look at the source code because something that works on one altcoin may not necessarily work on the next.
