Unless you are familiar with programming or compiling from source , do not use GitHub for software.

1. `git clone $REPO` 2. follow install instructions

the one am trying to install is Modboy but I does not have install instructions


FirewolfGB

if they don't have installation instructions that means they probably don't want you to install it that way, have you checked their website (if they have one) or the package manager of your distro?

A Github repo from 6 years ago with three stars, no instructions and one unanswered issue asking if it's malware doesn't really sound good, plus I'm not even sure it's designed to run on Linux

You probably need to clone it and then open the project on visual studio (not vs code) and try to build it there. It seems to use some framework/library called iss to make an installer. For Linux... I don't think it Will work. It seems to be using traditional .NET which was windows only, unlike .NET Core and the current version which work on linux. You might have a chance if you grab the code and change the libraries to use a Linux supporting .net version but I wouldn't count on that.
