Quick video commenting on these slides

Get a computer running Linux

Any Linux machine will do.

Some favourites:

  • NUC

  • Raspberry pi

  • Any PC

Caveat: An old computer will do, but if it is very small (low on memory/disc space/slow) then it may be difficult to compile or run the wallet.

Linux: Use git to download the SMLY wallet source

Simple:

git clone http://github.com/tutor-web/smileyCoin

Gives a new folder, smileyCoin

Linux: Run the tools to compile the code

  • ./autogen.sh

  • ./configure

  • make

Caveat: May need to modify src/Makefile on a Raspberry pi.

Linux: Install the wallet where you want it

Typical

  • cd

  • mkdir bin

  • cd smileyCoin/src

  • mv smileycoind smileycoin-cli $HOME/bin
