# Welcome to Open Dylan!

Open Dylan is a compiler and a set of libraries for the [Dylan programming

language](http://opendylan.org/books/drm).

If you're reading this inside of a binary release that you just downloaded and

unpacked, then this is all you need to do to get started:

  ```

  $ export PATH=/path/to/opendylan/bin:$PATH    # for bash

  ```

Verify that the downloaded version is working correctly by building a

hello-world binary:

  ```

  deft new application --simple hello-world

  cd hello-world

  deft build --all

  _build/bin/hello-world

  ```

Note: if there is no `_build` directory already, dylan-compiler will create it

and build all used libraries.  Subsequent builds will be much faster since they

won't need to rebuild core libraries (as long as you always run the compiler in

the same directory).
