-```
-
-The `--quiet` flag suppresses non-essential output, and `--cask` specifies the graphical application version. Homebrew automatically detects your processor architecture (Intel or Apple Silicon) and installs the appropriate version.
-
-#### Verification
-
-Confirm the installation succeeded by launching the application:
-
-```bash
-open -a "draw.io"
-```
-
-Alternatively, verify the application exists:
-
-```bash
-ls /Applications | grep -i draw
-```
-
-Expected output:
-
-```
-draw.io.app
-```
-
-#### Troubleshooting
-
-**Problem**: `Error: Cask 'drawio' is not installed`
-
-**Solution**: The cask name may have changed. Search for the current name:
-
-```bash
-brew search drawio
-```
-
-**Problem**: Application fails to open with "damaged" warning
-
-**Solution**: Remove the quarantine attribute:
-
-```bash
-xattr -cr /Applications/draw.io.app
-```
-
-**Problem**: Homebrew is not in PATH after installation
-
-**Solution**: Add Homebrew to your PATH. For Apple Silicon Macs:
-
-```bash
-echo 'eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> ~/.zprofile
-eval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
-```
-
----
-
-### Ubuntu/Debian (Snap)
-
-#### Prerequisites
-
-- Ubuntu 16.04 LTS or later, or Debian 9 or later
-- snapd package manager (pre-installed on Ubuntu 16.04+)
-- sudo privileges
-
-Snap is the recommended installation method for Ubuntu/Debian as it provides automatic updates and consistent behavior across distributions.
-
-First, ensure snapd is installed and up to date:
-
-```bash
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update -y
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y snapd
-```
-
-#### Installation Steps
-
-Run the following command to install Draw.io:
-
-```bash
-sudo snap install drawio
-```
-
-Snap handles all dependencies automatically and will keep Draw.io updated in the background.
-
-#### Verification
-
-Confirm the installation succeeded:
-
-```bash
-snap list drawio
-```
-
-Expected output (version numbers may vary):
-
-```
-Name    Version  Rev   Tracking       Publisher  Notes
-drawio  28.2.5   123   latest/stable  jgraph     -
-```
-
-Launch Draw.io to verify it works:
-
-```bash
-drawio &
-```
-
-Or from the application menu, search for "draw.io" or "diagrams.net".
-
-#### Troubleshooting
-
-**Problem**: `error: snap "drawio" is not available on stable for this architecture`
-
-**Solution**: The Snap package may not support your CPU architecture. Use the alternative .deb installation method:
-
-```bash
-# Download the latest .deb package
-curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases/latest | grep "browser_download_url.*amd64.*\.deb" | cut -d '"' -f 4 | xargs -I {} curl -L -o /tmp/drawio.deb {}
-# Install the package
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y /tmp/drawio.deb
-```
-
-**Problem**: Draw.io cannot access files in certain directories
-
-**Solution**: Snap applications have limited file system access by default. Grant additional permissions:
-
-```bash
-sudo snap connect drawio:removable-media
-```
-
-**Problem**: `snap: command not found`
-
-**Solution**: Install snapd:
-
-```bash
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update -y
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y snapd
-sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
-sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
-```
-
-Log out and log back in for PATH changes to take effect.
-

-
-### Raspberry Pi OS (Snap or Manual)
-
-#### Prerequisites
-
-- Raspberry Pi OS (64-bit recommended) - Bookworm or Bullseye
-- Raspberry Pi 3B+ or later (64-bit capable hardware)
-- At least 2 GB RAM
-- sudo privileges
-
-First, verify your architecture:
-
-```bash
-uname -m
-```
-
-- `aarch64` = 64-bit (recommended, more packages available)
-- `armv7l` = 32-bit (limited package availability)
-
-**Important**: Draw.io Desktop ARM64 packages are available from GitHub releases. Snap packages may have limited ARM support.
-
-#### Installation Steps
-
-**For 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS (aarch64):**
-
-Install via Snap (if available for your architecture):
-
-```bash
-# Install and configure snapd
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update -y
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y snapd
-sudo reboot
-```
-
-After reboot:
-
-```bash
-sudo snap install core
-sudo snap install drawio
-```
-
-**Alternative: Install from .deb package (Recommended for ARM64):**
-
-If Snap does not work on your architecture, download and install the ARM64 .deb package directly:
-
-```bash
-# Download the latest ARM64 .deb package
-curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases/latest | grep "browser_download_url.*arm64.*\.deb" | cut -d '"' -f 4 | xargs -I {} curl -L -o /tmp/drawio-arm64.deb {}
-
-# Install the package and resolve dependencies
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update -y
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y /tmp/drawio-arm64.deb
-```
-
-**For 32-bit Raspberry Pi OS (armv7l):**
-
-Draw.io Desktop does not officially provide 32-bit ARM packages. Use the web version instead:
-
-1. Open Chromium browser on your Raspberry Pi
-2. Navigate to https://app.diagrams.net
-3. The web application provides the same functionality as the desktop app
-
-#### Verification
-
-For Snap installation:
-
-```bash
-snap list drawio
-```
-
-For .deb installation:
-
-```bash
-dpkg -l | grep drawio
-```
-
-Launch Draw.io:
-
-```bash
-drawio &
-```
-
-#### Troubleshooting
-
-**Problem**: Snap installation fails with architecture error
-
-**Solution**: Use the .deb package installation method described above for ARM64, or use the web version for 32-bit systems.
-
-**Problem**: Application is slow or unresponsive
-
-**Solution**: Draw.io is an Electron application which can be resource-intensive. Ensure you have adequate RAM (2 GB minimum, 4 GB recommended) and consider closing other applications.
-
-**Problem**: Dependency errors when installing .deb package
-
-**Solution**: Fix broken dependencies:
-
-```bash
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y -f
-```
-

-### WSL (Ubuntu)
-
-#### Prerequisites
-
-- Windows 10 version 2004 or higher, or Windows 11
-- WSL 2 enabled with Ubuntu distribution installed
-- sudo privileges within WSL
-- X11 server running on Windows (for GUI applications)
-
-**Important**: Draw.io is a GUI application. Running it in WSL requires an X11 server on Windows to display the window.
-
-#### Installation Steps
-
-**Step 1: Install an X11 server on Windows**
-
-Install VcXsrv or similar X11 server on Windows:
-
-```powershell
-# Run in Windows PowerShell as Administrator
-choco install vcxsrv -y
-```
-
-Launch XLaunch from the Start Menu with default settings (Multiple windows, Start no client, Disable access control).
-
-**Step 2: Configure WSL for X11 display**
-
-In WSL Ubuntu, configure the DISPLAY variable:
-
-```bash
-# For WSL 2
-echo 'export DISPLAY=$(grep -m 1 nameserver /etc/resolv.conf | awk "{print \$2}"):0' >> ~/.bashrc
-source ~/.bashrc
-```
-
-**Step 3: Install Draw.io via Snap**
-
-```bash
-# Install snapd if not present
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get update -y
-sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y snapd
-
-# Install Draw.io
-sudo snap install drawio
-```
-
-#### Verification
-
-Confirm the installation succeeded:
-
-```bash
-snap list drawio
-```
-
-Launch Draw.io (ensure X11 server is running on Windows):
-
-```bash
-drawio &
-```
-
-A Draw.io window should appear on your Windows desktop.
-
-#### Troubleshooting
-
-**Problem**: `Error: cannot open display`
-
-**Solution**: Ensure the X11 server is running on Windows and DISPLAY is set correctly:
-
-```bash
-echo $DISPLAY
-```
-
-If empty or incorrect, set it manually:
-
-```bash
-export DISPLAY=$(grep -m 1 nameserver /etc/resolv.conf | awk '{print $2}'):0
-```
-
-**Problem**: Snap does not work in WSL
-
-**Solution**: Snap requires systemd which is not enabled by default in WSL. Enable systemd:
-
-```bash
-echo -e "[boot]\nsystemd=true" | sudo tee /etc/wsl.conf
-```
-
-Then restart WSL from Windows PowerShell:
-
-```powershell
-wsl --shutdown
-```
-
-Re-open WSL and retry the Snap installation.
-
-**Problem**: Window appears but is blank or crashes
-
-**Solution**: Try running with software rendering:
-
-```bash
-drawio --disable-gpu &
-```

-### Git Bash (Windows Portable Installation)
-
-#### Prerequisites
-
-- Windows 10 or Windows 11 (64-bit)
-- Git Bash installed (comes with Git for Windows)
-- Internet connection to download the portable package
-
-**Note**: Git Bash runs on Windows, so the primary installation method is the Windows Chocolatey installation (see Windows section). However, if you cannot use Chocolatey or need a portable installation, follow these steps.
-
-#### Installation Steps
-
-Download and extract the portable Windows ZIP package:
-
-```bash
-# Create a directory for portable applications
-mkdir -p ~/portable-apps
-
-# Download the latest Windows ZIP (portable version)
-curl -L -o /tmp/drawio.zip "$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/jgraph/drawio-desktop/releases/latest | grep 'browser_download_url.*windows\.zip' | head -1 | cut -d '"' -f 4)"
-
-# Extract to portable apps directory
-unzip -q /tmp/drawio.zip -d ~/portable-apps/drawio
-
-# Clean up
-rm /tmp/drawio.zip
-```
-
-Add an alias for easy access from Git Bash:
-
-```bash
-echo 'alias drawio="~/portable-apps/drawio/draw.io.exe"' >> ~/.bashrc
-source ~/.bashrc
-```
-
-#### Verification
-
-Confirm the installation succeeded:
-
-```bash
-ls ~/portable-apps/drawio/
-```
-
-Expected output should include `draw.io.exe` and supporting files.
-
-Launch Draw.io:
-
-```bash
-drawio &
-```
-
-Or directly:
-
-```bash
-~/portable-apps/drawio/draw.io.exe &
-```
-
-#### Troubleshooting
-
-**Problem**: `unzip: command not found`
-
-**Solution**: Install unzip via Git Bash's package manager or use Windows built-in extraction:

-powershell -command "Expand-Archive -Path '/tmp/drawio.zip' -DestinationPath '$HOME/portable-apps/drawio'"
-```
-
-**Problem**: Permission denied when running the executable
-
-**Solution**: Windows may have blocked the downloaded file. Unblock it:
-
-```bash
-powershell -command "Unblock-File -Path '$HOME/portable-apps/drawio/draw.io.exe'"
-```
-
-**Problem**: PATH issues with spaces in directory names
-
-**Solution**: Ensure the path is quoted correctly in aliases and commands. Use Windows-style paths if needed:
-
-```bash
-alias drawio='"/c/Users/YourName/portable-apps/drawio/draw.io.exe"'
-```
-
----
-
