Binary Deployment
Sinaptic® DROID+ is a single, statically-linked binary with zero external dependencies. Download it, make it executable, and run it — no runtime, no package manager, no containers required.
Download
Install script (recommended):
curl -fsSL https://get.droid.plus | sh
The script detects your OS and architecture, downloads the correct binary, and places it in /usr/local/bin/.
Manual download:
Download the binary for your platform from GitHub Releases:
| Platform | Architecture | Binary |

| Linux | amd64 | droid-linux-amd64 |
| Linux | arm64 | droid-linux-arm64 |
| macOS | Apple Silicon | droid-darwin-arm64 |
| macOS | Intel | droid-darwin-amd64 |
| Windows | amd64 | droid-windows-amd64.exe |
chmod +x droid-linux-amd64
sudo mv droid-linux-amd64 /usr/local/bin/droid
Running

Updating
Replace the binary and restart:

sudo systemctl restart droid
Your config files and data directory are separate from the binary, so updates are non-destructive.
