How did Hal install the original

Bitcoin core on his computer?

How did you install it on your computer?

Writing complex software and then creating a seamless install method are both laborious. I think there’s over-trivialization of creating an installer/bundle/whatever in this thread.

I am not over trivializing it, I’m trying to explain the *importance* of it. I don’t claim at all that what I’ve suggested is an easy task.

Like I said, my OP was supposed to be a casual joke about my pains with using GitHub despite starting this in depth conversation. 😆

It’s obviously vastly easier said than done. As someone who digs through dependencies incessantly with docker tools and is working with someone right now to try and get slashtags fully built inside a Wordpress plug-in, trust me I know this isn’t a simple ask.

What feels like the 100s of different times and different versions and environments and docker instances in which I have installed the same python packages still confound me to no end. And how often I try to do something only to realize the version in the current thing I’m working in isn’t the right one and then trying to understand how and at what layer I need to update or downgrade python or pip or whatever - just hurts my face 🤣🤣

Computers can be infuriating sometimes.

Python is a shitcoin.
