You can download by clicking on the "Zip" link, here is direct link I 
get from their website:

https://github.com/midori-browser/core/releases/download/v6/midori-v6.0.tar.gz

It should be easy to build, I use it on mu FreeBSD workstation (as a 
second choice of a browser); I've installed it as FreeBSD package, so I 
didn't read build instruction/dependencies, but this may add to whatever 
build instruction the ship with source (it is for FreeBSD but it gives 
you all information you need):

Good luck!
