### Quick Install (Recommended)

**macOS/Linux:**

```bash
# Prerequisites: Install Git first
# macOS: brew install git
# Ubuntu/Debian: sudo apt install git
# Fedora: sudo dnf install git
# Arch: sudo pacman -S git

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ganbitlabs/walgo/main/install.sh | bash
```

**Windows:**

```powershell
# Prerequisites: Install Git first
# Using Chocolatey (recommended):
# choco install git
# Or download from: https://git-scm.com/download/win

```

Or download the binary manually from the [releases page](https://github.com/ganbitlabs/walgo/releases/latest).

<details>
<summary>🪟 Windows Installation Details (Click to Expand)</summary>

#### Method 1: PowerShell One-Line Install (Recommended)

```powershell
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ganbitlabs/walgo/main/install.ps1 | iex
```

This automatically detects your architecture, downloads binary, and installs it.

#### Method 2: Download and Install Manually

1. Download from [releases page](https://github.com/ganbitlabs/walgo/releases/latest):

- `walgo-windows-amd64.exe` (64-bit)
   - `walgo-windows-arm64.exe` (ARM64)

2. Add to PATH (PowerShell as Administrator):

```powershell
   New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path "C:\Program Files\walgo"
   Move-Item walgo.exe "C:\Program Files\walgo\"
   [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", $env:Path + ";C:\Program Files\walgo", "Machine")
   ```

3. **Important:** Close and reopen terminal for PATH changes to take effect.

#### Common Windows Issues

**"execution of scripts is disabled"**

```powershell
Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser
```

**Windows Defender SmartScreen warning**

1. Click "More info"
2. Click "Run anyway"
3. Safe to run - source code is verified on GitHub

For complete Windows installation guide, see [docs/INSTALLATION.md](docs/INSTALLATION.md#windows).

</details>

### Using Go

```bash
go install github.com/ganbitlabs/walgo@latest
```

### Build from Source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/ganbitlabs/walgo.git
cd walgo
make build
```

### Verify Installation

```bash
walgo version
```

### Desktop App (Optional)

Download the desktop GUI from the [releases page](https://github.com/ganbitlabs/walgo/releases).

#### macOS Installation

**Security Note:** The app is ad-hoc signed but not notarized with Apple. On first launch, macOS may show an "unidentified developer" warning.

**Method 1: Right-click to Open (Recommended)**

1. Download and extract `walgo-desktop_*_darwin_*.tar.gz`
2. Move `Walgo.app` to your Applications folder
3. **Right-click** on `Walgo.app` and select **"Open"**
4. Click **"Open"** again in the security dialog
5. The app will now open and be trusted for future launches

**Method 2: Terminal**

```bash
# Remove quarantine and open
xattr -cr /Applications/Walgo.app
open /Applications/Walgo.app
```

> If you used the install script (`curl ... | bash`), quarantine removal is handled automatically.

#### Windows Installation

1. Download `walgo-desktop_*_windows_amd64.zip`
2. Extract and run `walgo-desktop.exe`
3. Windows Defender may show a warning - click "More info" → "Run anyway"

#### Linux Installation

1. Download `walgo-desktop_*_linux_amd64.tar.gz`
2. Extract and run `./walgo-desktop`
3. Make executable if needed: `chmod +x walgo-desktop`

## Quick Start

### Option 1: Quickstart Command (Fastest)

Create, build, and deploy a new site in one command:

```bash
walgo quickstart my-blog
```

This will:

1. Create a new Hugo site with a theme
2. Add sample content
3. Build and optimize the site
4. Offer deployment options

### Option 2: Step-by-Step Setup

```bash
# 1. Create a new site
walgo init my-site
cd my-site

# 2. Build your site
walgo build

# 3. Deploy with the interactive wizard
walgo launch
```

### The Launch Wizard

`walgo launch` is the **recommended way to deploy**. It guides you through:

1. **Network Selection** — Choose testnet or mainnet
2. **Wallet Setup** — View balance, switch or create addresses
3. **Project Details** — Name your project for easy management
4. **Storage Duration** — Set how long to store your site (epochs)
5. **Cost Review** — See estimated gas fees before confirming
6. **Deployment** — Upload to Walrus with progress feedback
7. **SuiNS Setup** — Instructions to configure your custom domain

```bash
cd my-site
walgo launch
```
