How do I get WarFoundry?

That depends on whether you want to get the source or the binary version.

How do I get the source code for WarFoundry?

If you just want to read it then the source code is in the Trac source code browser. Instructions and locations for checking the code out from Subversion are in our Getting Started guide.

How do I get the binary build of WarFoundry?

At the time of writing v0.1 of WarFoundry is still a milestone and hasn't been released. Binary builds will eventually be on the ​downloads page, or you can build it yourself.

What tools do I need to write code for WarFoundry?

At its simplest you need an editor, a compiler and a tool to check out the source code from version control and commit your changes. In practice most people use an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) like Visual Studio or MonoDevelop, which integrates the compiler. MonoDevelop also integrates version control tools for Subversion as well.
