Debian based Linux setup

Step 1: Install dependencies

sudo apt update
sudo apt install cmake openssl
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arduino/arduino-cli/master/install.sh \
    | BINDIR=/usr/local/bin sudo sh # Install ArduinoCLI

Then, install a C++ compiler (g++ or clang APT package).

SMCE-gd uses libSMCE, so you will probably need the latest version. Head to its releases page, and download the latest .deb for the your distro and default compiler (GNU is GCC).

Step 2: Install smce_gd

Now, go on our releases page, and download the latest .deb for your distro and default compiler.

Install this .deb however you'd like; if you do not know how to, the simplest way is to simply invoke sudo apt install ./path/to/file.deb

Step 3: Contemplate success

The "SMCE-Godot" application should now be installed and usable from your desktop environment.
