Tools and Conventions

In this course, we will be using the treasury command line tool. This is a binary that is available for Linux and macOS. It implements an interpreter to interact with Cordial Treasury instances using the Cordial Scripting Language (CSL). Additional documentation for this language is hosted in the Reference section, but this course will be self-contained.

To setup the treasury tool, follow the instructions in the first two sections of the Download Reference.

In short, run:

curl -Sfs https://dl.cordial.systems/install | to=/usr/local/bin bash
