Two demo apps built on WolfCurses, and one download gives you both. Every
per-platform archive is self-contained - unpack and run, no .NET install needed. Both
are terminal UIs, so start them from a real terminal window rather than by double-clicking,
and give the window some room.

Each archive unpacks to two folders, WolfCurses.Example/ and WolfCurses.Games/, each
holding its app and that app's own artwork.

App What it is
WolfCurses.Example The library tour: image rendering (kitty/sixel/half blocks), sprites, progress bars and graphs, colored widgets, file and list dialogs.
WolfCurses.Games A small arcade: Snake, Minesweeper, Tetris, WolfChess 5000, Missile Command, Labyrinth, Pac-Man, blackjack, poker and Battlezone.
Platform Download
Windows win-x64, win-arm64, win-x86 (.zip)
macOS osx-arm64 (Apple silicon), osx-x64 (Intel) (.tar.gz)
Linux (glibc) linux-x64, linux-arm64, linux-arm (.tar.gz)
Linux (musl / Alpine) linux-musl-x64, linux-musl-arm64, linux-musl-arm (.tar.gz)
Anything else portable (.zip) - needs .NET 10 installed

Every file is named WolfCurses-demos-v2026.8.18.8-<platform>.

On macOS and Linux, unpack with tar -xzf <file>, then run
./WolfCurses.Example/WolfCurses.Example or ./WolfCurses.Games/WolfCurses.Games.
macOS quarantines unsigned downloads, so if Gatekeeper objects, clear it for the whole
folder: xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine .

The portable build covers architectures that have no self-contained runtime pack to build
against, such as loongarch64 and riscv64. Run it with
dotnet WolfCurses.Example/WolfCurses.Example.dll.


These are demonstrations. To build something with the library, install it from NuGet -
dotnet add package WolfCurses - which has no relation to the version number above.
