Downloads

The tool runs on both Windows and Linux. You can find the latest binaries on the Releases page.

Which package to use?

• If you are on Linux, use Demeton-linux-x64-full.zip package. It contains Demeton's libraries as well as .NET Core stuff needed to run it.
• If you are on Windows and you don't have .NET Core 3 installed, please use the Demeton-win10-x64-full.zip package, as it includes .NET Core libraries.
• If you are on Windows and you already have .NET Core 3 installed, you can use the smaller Demeton-win10-x64.zip package.
