Minesweeper guides
Install, safety, first-run, and migration notes for a local LibreMines setup. Start with the OS that matches your machine, then keep one update door. These pages support the same board habit without Softonic mirrors.
Windows readers should prefer the Qt6 zip on the current GitHub tag. macOS readers use the Qt6 DMG. Linux readers use the Qt6 AppImage. No winget or Homebrew cask id was found.
Each guide ends with related doors so a teammate can find releases, download-safe habits, and the first-hour checklist without inventing a second binary. Website billing stays separate from the GPL-3.0 program licence. Upstream bugs belong on Bollos00/LibreMines issues, while guide corrections belong on the contact page.
After you finish an OS install page, prove one short local game before you add themes or Flatpak doors. Document whether the Windows zip, macOS DMG, AppImage, or Flatpak owns the machine. That note prevents duplicate installs after a reimage and keeps classroom images honest.
