This short tutorial is meant for end users of ChatOverflow and shows how to install and run the framework with all dependencies.
If you want to set up a build environment for developing plugins or to contribute to the framework, head over to Build Environment.

Prerequisites

For running Chatoverflow you will need Java 8, version 1.8.0_161 or newer.
You can download it here.

Installation

  1. Head over to the releases tab and download the ChatOverflow .zip file from the assets section of the latest release.

  2. Extract the zip file. (It's clever to extract it in a folder called chatoverflow 😉)

  3. If you are on Windows, execute ChatOverflow.bat. If you are on an UNIX operating system like MacOS or Linux execute ChatOverflow.sh.

  4. Wait for the launcher to download all dependencies. ⏳

  5. The framework will start. Have fun using it! 😃

  6. To start the framework again, just re-execute the script (ChatOverflow.bat or ChatOverflow.sh, depending on your system). Don't worry, it won't download the dependencies again.
