Table of Contents

Introduction

OpenAero does not need traditional installation and can be used on many different devices and operating systems.

Details

The best supported browser is Google Chrome which is available for Windows, OSX, Linux, iOS and Android. Other modern browsers such as Microsoft Edge (2016 and later) may also run OpenAero. Internet Explorer is not supported.

There are two ways of using OpenAero; online and offline.

Online use

Go to openaero.net and you immediately have access to the latest version of OpenAero.

Offline use

For most users it is not recommended to separately download OpenAero. It will be automatically installed in your browser whenever you visit openaero.net. In many cases (Android, iOS, Windows 10) you will get the option of installing a specialised app. This will also ensure you always have the latest version.

If you are a developer and do want to download OpenAero separately:

  • Install a web server. The Web Server for Chrome is a lightweight option
  • Download OpenAero as a single ZIP file from https://github.com/OpenAero/main
  • Unzip the folder to a location in your webserver's html directory
  • You can now use OpenAero from http://localhost/yourPath

Installation and usage problems

If you encounter any problems please do not hesitate to:

  * check the Known issues : https://github.com/OpenAero/main/issues
  * add a new issue when your problem/request is not present

OpenAero is under full development. Expect many more features in the near future!
