Your computer. Your stage.
Choose your operating system. These links use the files actually published in the latest release, checking GitHub.
Windows
For 64-bit Windows. Download the app and open it.
Checking releases...Linux
For Intel and AMD 64-bit computers. Make the file executable, then run it.
Checking releases...Older files named bunzai-cli-linux-x64 need the ui command.
macOS
For Apple Silicon Macs. Experimental and not signed by Apple: after downloading, run chmod +x Bunzai-macOS and xattr -c Bunzai-macOS, then ./Bunzai-macOS.
New app builds include the remote-access helper. You do not need a separate sidecar download. Older releases may still offer the verified helper download in Settings.
Releases and SHA256SUMS on GitHub · Illustrated installation guide
Source install
Install Bun at the version pinned by the project, then clone Bunzai with its rp-core submodule:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/Vaudeville-Studios/Bunzai.git
cd Bunzai
bun install --frozen-lockfile
bun run dev
The server prints the loopback address to open in your browser. If port 8321 is busy, Bunzai selects another free port and prints that address.
Advanced: terminal use, ARM and older releases
The app download is enough for ordinary use. CLI commands support automation, and Linux ARM64 builds are useful on ARM devices and servers. Those workflows remain available from source; the installation guide explains the difference. Old release assets stay in place for existing installations and recovery links.
The Browser Studio is a temporary browser session for trying import, editing, and export. Its data does not persist after reload, and playing scenes requires the installed application.
