Continuum Bounty Test - Windows
Continuum is a small, local-first tool for publishing profiles, notes, and long-form posts (articles) using Nostr.
Nothing runs in the cloud.
No accounts. No sign-ups.
Everything happens on your machine.
What you need
- Windows 10 or 11
- Docker Desktop installed on Windows
https://is.gd/KtiVeY - Terminal access
(On Windows, use Terminal in admin mode)
Note: All commands below are run inside a WSL (Linux) terminal unless explicitly stated otherwise.
Step 1 – Unzip the package
- Download the zip from the link I shared
- Expand it (I expanded it in the Downloads directory on my Windows machine)
Step 2 – Install WSL (if not already installed)
Open a terminal session in admin mode:
- Double-click the Terminal app
OR - Right-click Start → Terminal (Admin)
(You may be prompted to allow system changes — this is required for WSL and Docker.)
In the terminal, run:
wsl --version
If you see something like:
WSL version: 2.x
You’re good.
If WSL is not installed, run:
wsl --install
You may need to reboot after installation.
Step 3 – Start Docker Desktop
Open Docker Desktop
Wait until Docker shows as Running
Step 4 – Start a WSL session
In the same terminal, start WSL:
wsl
At this point, you are inside a Linux environment.
Navigate to the folder where the zip was expanded (usually in Downloads):
cd UNZIPPED_PACKAGE_LOCATION
On my machine this was:
cd /mnt/c/Users/astan/Downloads/continuum-pro-test
(/mnt/c maps to your Windows C:\ drive.)
Then:
cd dashboard
