- Go to the BBai Releases page on GitHub.
- Download the
bbai-installer.msi
file. - Double-click the downloaded file to run the installer.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
After installation, you'll find two batch files on your desktop:
bbai_init.bat
: Use this to initialize BBai in your project directory.bbai_start.bat
: Use this to start BBai and open the browser interface.
BBai is designed to work with specific projects or directories. The init
and start
commands are not global; they are tied to the directory where you run them.
- Open File Explorer and navigate to your project directory.
- Copy the
bbai_init.bat
file from your desktop into your project directory. - Double-click
bbai_init.bat
to run it. - Follow the prompts to set up BBai for your project.
- Make sure you're in the project directory where you ran
bbai_init.bat
. - Copy the
bbai_start.bat
file from your desktop into your project directory. - Double-click
bbai_start.bat
to start BBai. - Your default web browser will open, showing the BBai interface for your project.
If you prefer using the command line:
- Open Command Prompt.
- Navigate to your project directory:
cd path\to\your\project
- Run BBai commands directly:
bbai.exe init bbai.exe start
If you encounter any issues:
- Ensure you're running the batch files from your project directory.
- Check that BBai was installed correctly by running
bbai.exe --version
in Command Prompt. - If you get a "command not found" error, you may need to add BBai to your system PATH.
