The FSDL Standard.

Every app lives in a single, lightweight .fsdl package. From a tiny game to a full OS, it contains everything your app needs to run.

Pack it, upload it, share it — FtR handles the rest.

ftr pack . myapp

Instantly installable, transparent, and universal. No hidden steps. No setup wizard.

Build with Confidence.

FtR detects your project type automatically — Go, Python, C++, or shell — and builds it with the right toolchain. No config files, no guesswork.

Optional install.sh or Makefile scripts are supported. Otherwise, FtR builds the binary for you and installs it cleanly. All you have to do is:

ftr get user/repo

Build Your App.

Creating and sharing your own FtR app is simple. Follow these steps to package and distribute your application:

1. Structure Your Project

Place all your project files in a directory. FtR automatically detects:


myapp/
├── main.go | main.py | main.cpp # Your main application file
├── install.sh                   # Optional installation script
└── Makefile                     # Optional build instructions
                

2. Package Your App

Create an FSDL package from your project directory:

ftr pack . myapp

Your app is now wrapped in a single .fsdl package, ready for distribution.

3. Upload to InkDrop

Share your app through your InkDrop repository:

ftr up myapp.fsdl username/myapp

FtR handles dependencies and distribution automatically.

4. Installation

Users can now install your app with a single command:

ftr get username/myapp

Your app is now available to everyone in the FtR ecosystem. No complex configuration, no dependency handling; just clean, efficient software distribution.

Cross-Platform Power.

FtR works everywhere: Linux, macOS, even ARM devices. Commands stay identical and performance stays consistent, so you can focus on building.
