Description
I plan to use a feature added in gbdev/rgbds#1159 in a Game Boy project, and I want to know what to tell contributors who use Windows to install until RGBDS 0.6.2 comes out. I'm having trouble finding on the website how to obtain and install Windows executables of RGBDS master
built by a GitHub Actions job.
- In https://rgbds.gbdev.io/install, under
Windows
then"Plain" Windows
, follow "go here". Broken. This link leads to a nonexistent anchorusing-rgbds-master
. - In https://rgbds.gbdev.io/install, under
Windows
then"Plain" Windows
, follow "usemaster
", then follow "use our CI". Broken. This link leads back toinstall
under a nonexistent anchorusing-our-ci
.
The correct answer appears to be this: In https://rgbds.gbdev.io/install, follow "using a development version", then scroll down to "Using our CI" and follow "made available on GitHub". Then under "workflow run results", follow the name of the most recent PR with a green check next to master
, scroll down to "Artifacts", and then download rgbds-canary-win64
.
Aside: The "go here" phrasing for the call to action is deprecated by a W3C article, which claims that noun phrases make the clearest CTA. According to "The problem with 'click here' and 'learn more' links" by Cynthia Marinakos, it slows the reader and creates a feeling of risk. Answers to questions on UX Stack Exchange and Webmasters Stack Exchange explain what an author can do about "here" in links.
