    The CloverDX Designer for Linux is distributed as a .tar.gz file.

    Extract the archive.

    tar xvzf cloverdx-designer-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz

    The executable to run is CloverDXDesigner/CloverDXDesigner.

    For more comfortable running, add the binary to the $PATH or create a Launcher.

    We recommend you install webkitgtk to see the welcome page. CloverDX Designer is able to run without this library. The library is necessary for the welcome page and for context info on edges.

    yum install webkitgtk

    On deb-based distributions, run

    apt-get install libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 (for GTK+ 2)
