Install

System requirements

• Unix-like or Windows OS.
• Minimum supported Node.js version 18.0.0.

Simplest way to get started

• Download the latest release.

Mac install

• In macOS Finder:
  • Double-click fepper.command.
  • If not already installed, this will install:
    • Node.js.
    • fepper-cli, which will give you the fp command.
  • If opening for the first time, macOS may warn that it can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. *
    • In this case, ctrl+click fepper.command and click "Open".
    • In the following prompt, click "Open" to confirm that you're sure you want to open it.
  • Enter your password to allow installation.
  • After installation, Fepper should automatically open in a browser.
  • Open http://localhost:3000 if it doesn't open automatically.

CLI install

• In Linux and other Unix-like OSs (or if you prefer working on the command line):
  • Install Node.js if it isn't already installed.
  • npm install -g fepper-cli
  • npm install
  • fp

Windows install

• In File Explorer, double-click fepper.vbs. *
  • If Node.js is not installed, this will install it.
  • After Node.js installation, double-click fepper.vbs again.
    • This will install fepper-cli, which will give you the fp command.
    • It will then install and launch Fepper.
