Installation

There are several ways to get W8 — choose the one that suits you:

1. Pre-built binary from GitHub Releases

Download the archive for your platform from the latest release page and add the path to the w8c or w8c.exe binary to your PATH.

2. Building from source

Requires Rust version 1.96.0 or later:

git clone https://github.com/dev-er1/w8.git
cd wdt/wdc
cargo build --release

The binary will appear at target/release. To use it from anywhere, add this path to your PATH or copy the binary to a convenient directory.
