On Windows

Install Golang

• Install Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

  • https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install

• Nimble requires Go 1.22.1. If you already have a previous Go version installed, start by removing it

  • sudo apt-get remove golang-go

  • sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go

• Once completed, open a terminal and execute the following commands

  • cd /usr/local

  • sudo wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.22.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz

  • sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.22.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz

  • export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin

  • go version

It should display the go version 1.22.1

Create Wallet

Note: Git is required for the remaining setup steps.

• Open a terminal

• Execute the following commands to download wallet CLI

  • mkdir $HOME/nimble && cd $HOME/nimble

  • git clone https://github.com/nimble-technology/wallet-public.git

  • cd wallet-public

  • make install

• Locate this executable command and confirm it exists

  • nimble-networkd

• Execute the following command to create your wallet. Give your wallet a name, such as 'ilovenimble'.

  • nimble-networkd keys add ilovenimble

  • (Type your passphrase)

  • (Save the seed phrase somewhere safe)

The “address: nimblexxxx” output means your Nimble Network wallet address was created successfully!
