Ubuntu Installation

Install the Wendy agent on any Ubuntu or Linux machine to turn it into a managed Wendy device. This works on bare-metal servers, cloud VMs, desktops, or any ARM64/x86_64 system.

Prerequisites

Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy) or later, or any Linux distribution
sudo access
An internet connection

Installing the Wendy Agent

Open a terminal on the target machine and run:

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://install.wendy.sh/agent.sh)"

This installs the Wendy agent and registers it as a system service.

Verify the Installation

Check that the agent is running:

sudo systemctl status wendy-agent

You should see the service active and running.

Discover Your Device

On your development machine, run:

wendy discover
# Set this device as your default
wendy device set-default

Your device should appear in the list of discovered devices, ready for app deployments.

Next Steps

Now that the Wendy agent is installed, you can start deploying apps to your device. Check out the Quick Start Guide to build your first app.
