@node Installation
@chapter Installation

Chickadee is available for download from its website at
@url{dthompson.us/projects/chickadee.html}.  This section describes
the software requirements of Chickadee, as well as how to install it.

The build procedure for Chickadee is the same as for GNU software
packages, and is not covered here.  Please see the files @file{README}
and @file{INSTALL} for additional details.

@menu
* Requirements::                Software needed to build and run Chickadee.
@end menu

@node Requirements
@section Requirements

Chickadee depends on the following packages:

@itemize
@item @url{https://gnu.org/software/guile, GNU Guile}, version 2.1.0 or later;
@item @url{https://gnu.org/software/guile-opengl, GNU guile-opengl}, version 0.1 or later.
@item @url{https://dthompson.us/pages/software/guile-sdl2.html, guile-sdl2}, version 0.2.0 or later;
@end itemize

Additionally, Chickadee depends on being able to create an OpenGL 3.3
context at runtime, which means that some older computers may not be
able to run games written with Chickadee.
