MacOS

Install latest version of cloudypad CLI:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/PierreBeucher/cloudypad/master/install.sh | sh

OrbStack is recommended over Docker Desktop as it's more compatible for Cloudy Pad usage.

Windows

Running Cloudy Pad on Windows requires WSL to be installed.

Once WSL is installed, run a Linux shell and follow Linux installation steps.

Note: If you are using SSH keys mounted from Windows host, make sure they have proper permissions: chmod 0600 ~/.ssh/<key>

Nix / NixOS

Cloudy Pad is packaged as a Nix Flake, see flake.nix

You can include it in your NixOS config or run directly with nix run:

nix run github:PierreBeucher/cloudypad create
nix run github:PierreBeucher/cloudypad -- --version
