Project Installation

Once you retrieve your application client ID and client secret, you can now download ManaoBot! The bot doesn’t have a single-file executable (.exe) for now, so you would have to clone the repository manually. Fortunately, I’ve provided an automatic installer script to use! This guide is for Windows only.

1. Download the installer

Open Terminal app by searching for “Terminal” app in the search bar in start menu (pressing Windows button then type “terminal”), then type “powershell” in the terminal.

It is recommended that you download this app at Microsoft Store. Or press ⊞ Win + R then type powershell then press run if you don’t want to download the application.

After the terminal initiated, run the following command:

Invoke-WebRequest "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tinarskii/manao/refs/heads/main/tools/windows/INSTALLER.ps1" | Invoke-Expression

Note

Explanation: The URL is the source code for the ManaoInstaller, written in powershell. The command “Invoke-WebRequest” is used to retrieve the contents from the URL. Then, “Invoke-Expression” will run the script.

You can check source code of the installation script here to ensure your safety. Do not execute any suspicious script from the internet!

2. Installation process

After you have run the script, you will download required software as follows:

• Git: For version control - Official Website
• Bun: JavaScript runtime - Official Website
• Twitch CLI: Managing Twitch credentials - Official Website

If git has been installed successfully, it should display as follows: Select your preferred version or leave blank for latest version.

Then, bun and TwitchCLI installation script will be run. If successful, it will display something like this

Leave blank then press Enter to continue to setup process.
