Install
Download BChat-0.1.0-setup.exe below and run it. The installer isn't code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may warn you: choose More info → Run anyway. Some antivirus programs may also stop it; see the README.
bchat-update.json is the signed update file BChat reads; you don't need to download it.
