Installation

Download Details

The following table describes the various types of package available from the JoyDX Releases repository. Assets are packaged within zip format to save bandwidth. Checksums and GPG signatures are available for verifying release integrity.

Note for Windows users

If you are a Windows user installing manually and want to use JoyDX from both the GUI and CLI, it is recommended to use the installer. You will need to download both versions independently or use the GUI version and activate the system environment which will automatically download and setup the CLI version.

Note for Linux GUI users

For the graphical variants on Linux, there are two builds for each architecture due to some of the underlying system libraries used for managing window behaviour. Unless you are running a distribution released before 2024, you will likely want to use the webkit241 version

Download Integrity

If you would like to verify the authenticity of your downloads, checksums and PGP signatures are available on the Github releases page. The built in update function will automatically verify integrity using a built-in public key and the checksum from the releases page.
