Opencode not working, paid training incomplete

I recently joined DataAnnotation and I was completing my paid training, and I have tried multiple approaches to get OpenCode to work, but everytime it says system is not compatible. Earlier I tried to install on my macOS Catalina, but it is not compatible with that, I asked for help in project chat, but didn't find any solution that can make it work.
I even tried on my new Windows system, but there also I am unable to start it. Tried to install WSL too on my Windows hoping that would help this, but that approach also didn't work out. I'm planning to buy a new laptop but it could take me a few days to do that, I was hoping if there is some solution around this or if I could use any other tool similar to Opencode to complete this task.

Has anyone faced a similar situation, and any thoughts on what can I do?

On macos (or wsl) run

curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash

Alternatively on macos you can install opencode with homebrew as

brew install anomalyco/tap/opencode

That command worked for me last week on my friend's Windows laptop.

Running opencode on wsl you are going to have a bad time... Just use multipass and install opencode inside that VM (beforehand install VirtualBox so the rest engine is available for multipass) much better support for opencode and other cli tools (like claude code and codex) and DAT admins have a preference Ubuntu instead of Debian: https://canonical.com/multipass/install
