Installation

The actual version of Xoptfoil2 can be found in the Releases section of the Xoptfoil2 Github repo. In ‘Assets’ there some zip files:

• a ready build version for Windows
• the source files for building Xoptfoil2 under Linux

Windows

Download the Windows zip-file and extract it in any subdirectory - maybe for the first tries directly on the Windows Desktop. Xoptfoil2 is a very lightweight installation, which doesn’t install any other artefacts on your PC.

If you just want to try the examples, go to the folder .\examples, select an example and double click on make.bat.

Your own optimization projects should be created in seperate directories. Extend the Windows Path environment variable with the path to folder Xoptfoil2 was installed. Then you don’t need to copy Xoptfoil2.exeeach time you create a new project.
