Install

The current release is 0.5.0.

Windows

Codestamp runs on Windows 10 and 11 (x64).

1. Download Codestamp_0.5.0_x64-setup.exe from the Releases page.
2. Run it. The installer works for the current user, needs no administrator rights, and installs WebView2 only if it is missing.
3. When you update, choose “Do not uninstall” if the installer asks, so your data stays in place.

The installer is signed with a self-signed certificate for now, so Windows SmartScreen may show “Windows protected your PC”. Choose “More info”, then “Run anyway”.

Your data is stored in %APPDATA%\dev.codestamp.desktop.

Linux

For Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04 and later, and the distributions built on them, such as Linux Mint and Pop!_OS (x64).

Install from the APT repository

Add the signing key and the repository once, then install with apt.

wget -qO- https://oneshield7.github.io/codestamp/apt/codestamp.gpg | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/codestamp.gpg > /dev/null
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/codestamp.gpg] https://oneshield7.github.io/codestamp/apt stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/codestamp.list
sudo apt update && sudo apt install codestamp

Install the .deb by hand

1. Download Codestamp_0.5.0_amd64.deb from the Releases page.
2. Install it with apt, which also installs WebKitGTK if it is missing:

sudo apt install ./Codestamp_0.5.0_amd64.deb

Open Codestamp from the application menu. codestamp-cli is installed too.

Codestamp keeps secret values with a key in the system keyring, so a keyring such as GNOME Keyring or KWallet needs to be running. Desktop editions start one when you sign in.

Your data is stored in ~/.local/share/dev.codestamp.desktop.
