Installation

Linux (x86_64)

tar xzf cdin-v0.1.0-beta.4-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
cd cdin-v0.1.0-beta.4-linux-x86_64
bash install.sh                         # → ~/.local  (no sudo)
# or system-wide:
sudo bash install.sh --prefix=/usr/local

SDL3 runtime — needed at runtime if not already installed:

  • Ubuntu 24.04+: sudo apt install libsdl3-0
  • Other distros: see SDL3 releases

Windows (x86_64)

  1. Download cdin-v0.1.0-beta.4-windows-x86_64.zip and extract it.
  2. Open PowerShell inside the extracted folder and run:
.\install.ps1
# Optional:
.\install.ps1 -RegisterFileTypes   # set as default for text/code files
.\install.ps1 -Prefix C:\Tools\cdin # custom location

The installer copies cdin.exe, SDL3.dll, and the Lua DLL into
%LOCALAPPDATA%\cdin\bin and adds that folder to your user PATH.

macOS (arm64)

  1. Download cdin-v0.1.0-beta.4-macos.dmg and double-click it.
  2. Drag cdin into the Applications folder shortcut.
  3. Eject the disk image and open cdin from Launchpad or Spotlight.

SDL3 is bundled inside the .app — no Homebrew or extra installs needed.
