How to install free-claude-code

Free-claude-code is developer utility. Everything below is context rather than instruction — the project publishes its own material, and this note simply points at what matters.

Distribution in practice

Expect differences between platforms. The same project may reach one system through a package index and another through a source build.

Who is behind it

Ownership sits with the project's own contributors. Release cadence, supported platforms and documentation are all decided by them, and none of it is mediated here.

Prior checks

Start from the support matrix. It narrows over time, and assumptions made years ago often no longer hold.

Reading the outcome

Most unexpected behaviour traces back to resolution rather than to the project. An older copy sitting earlier in the path, or a version manager pointing somewhere else, will do it every time.

About these notes

Only text is published from this domain. Each project remains exactly where its authors put it.

A note on older machines

Hardware age matters more than people expect here. Recent releases tend to assume modern runtimes and current system libraries, so an ageing machine can rule out the newest version entirely.
