DYNA Fall 2025: 29-30 September. More info

Ride is a cross-platform graphical development environment. It can run on macOS, Linux and Microsoft Windows, and can be used from any one of these platforms as a front end for Dyalog versions from 14.1 onwards.

Ride can be used to connect to remote interpreters over a network. Ride and connected Dyalog interpreters do not need to be running on the same device or platform.

Ride is available as a standalone application, or it can be accessed via a web browser by using the configuration parameter RIDE_INIT=HTTP:<IP address>:<port>. This is known as “zero-footprint” RIDE and is available out-of-the-box with installations of Dyalog.

The standalone RIDE comes together with installations of Dyalog for macOS, but must be installed separately on Linux and Microsoft Windows.
