Step 1: Download Package

Visit the releases page on Radish's GitHub to find the latest download for your platform. Current supported platforms include:

If you're running Windows x64, download the installer (msi) rather than the zip file for a simpler installation.

Step 2: Download .NET

Radish is written in C#, which means that it runs using the .NET runtime. Go to Microsoft's .NET downloads page and select the most recent SDK for your OS. Follow the instructions in the installer to finish installing .NET.

If Using The Windows x64 Installer...

  1. Open the .msi file - your machine will probably warn you against it, but you can click "More Info" to bypass that
  2. Follow the prompts in the installer to complete your installation of Radish
  3. Refresh your PATH variable by opening the following:

    Edit the System Environmental Variables -> Environment Variables... -> System Variables -> Path (double click to open)copy text

  4. Click "Ok" on all of the opened windows to close them
  5. All done! Try using the command "radish" in your terminal. It should output something like this:

    Error initiating program: Could not find file [path to main.rdsh file]copy text

  10. You're all set! Try using the command "radish" in your terminal. It should output something like this:

    Error initiating program: Could not find file [path to main.rdsh file]copy text

If Using Linux...

Note that different Linux distributions may differ in how they load the PATH variable. If this doesn't work on your system, do some research into setting .bashrc, /etc/environment.d/*.conf, and /etc/profile.d/*.
