Introduction
This guide will demonstrate how you can install Wingman on various platforms in a few simple steps.
Wingman comes as a standalone binary and does not require any installation except for activating your license. Additionally every license can be activated twice and renewed indefinitely.
Installation
Download your license and binary from the dashboard after you have setup your account and claimed your free trial. Then proceed with the instructions matching your operating system.
The license file and binary are assumed to be located in the same folder. Even though everything should work out-of-the-box in most cases, some commands might require minor tweaking for them to work.
Linux
cat license | ./wingman_linux_amd64
Alternatively you can run the program and paste the license manually:
root@tf-srv-suspicious-pascal:/tmp# ./wingman_linux_amd64
[INFO] Enter license:
MacOS
cat license | ./wingman_darwin_amd64
Alternatively you can run the program and paste the license manually:

Depending on the system’s preferences, some users might get their process killed and an error message:

Using Windows PowerShell:
Write-Output (cat 'license') | .\wingman_windows_amd64.exe
Success

Congratulations! You’re completely finished and can now make full use of the application. Wingman will renew itself automatically when necessary.
