Install Code Config

Install Code Config on the computer where your coding app runs. Choose the desktop app for a visual launcher or csc for terminal and server use. The desktop package includes the CLI.

Check available downloads

Open Downloads in the web app. It shows the builds available for your computer. Use an offered build; a coding app being supported does not mean that every operating system has a published installer.

Install the desktop app

Download the package offered for your system. These are the Linux package options:

Any distribution

1. Choose Get the file that runs anywhere in Downloads.
2. Save the file. In its Properties, allow it to run as a program.
3. Open the file to start Code Config.

Debian or Ubuntu

Choose Get the .deb, open the downloaded package to install it, then start Code Config from your applications.

Fedora

Choose Get the .rpm, open the downloaded package to install it, then start Code Config from your applications.

Check: the Code Config window opens and offers to connect your computer.

Install from the terminal

Run the installer on the computer that will use the toolkit:

curl -fsSL https://dl.code-config.com/install | sh

On a Mac it installs csc, then puts the Code Config app in your Applications folder and asks whether to open it. On Linux it installs csc. To install only csc, on a Mac or on Linux, run this instead:

curl -fsSL https://dl.code-config.com/install | sh -s -- --cli-only

The installer adds csc to ~/.local/bin and sets up supported shells to find it. Open a new terminal, then check:

csc --version

The response should show csc and an installed version number. Downloads also offers CLI packages for supported package managers.

Common problems

Command not found: open a new terminal. If it still cannot find csc, check the installer’s result and run the installer again.

No download for this computer: check Downloads rather than choosing a package for another system.

An older version is running: compare csc --version with the version offered by Downloads and install the offered update.

Next

Connect your computer.
