What It Does

macOS

Downloads the .dmg disk image, mounts it, and copies CrashPlayer.app to /Applications. May ask for your password if admin access is needed.

Linux

Downloads the .tar.gz archive, extracts it, and copies the crashplayer binary to /usr/local/bin. May ask for your password via sudo. Use --user to install to ~/.local/bin instead.

Windows

Downloads the .zip archive, extracts it to %LOCALAPPDATA%\CrashPlayer, and adds the directory to your user PATH. Restart your terminal after installation.

Requirements

• Node.js 18 or later

Linux

# or if installed with --user:
