Requirements

Runtime Requirements

• JDK 25

Demo script Linux requirements

• jq, openssl, and tpm2-tools if you plan to use scripts/pc_certgen.sh

Demo script Windows requirements

• Powershell if you plan to use scripts/windows/pc_certgen.ps1

Tutorial requirements

• Each tutorial lists sample certificates and manifests at the top of the page that you can download and use within that tutorial.

Optional dependencies on Linux

These dependencies are required by the scripts/tcg_ccr.sh script. Some of them are standard Linux packages:

• dmidecode >= 3.2
• ethtool
• lshw
• nvme-cli

Build-time extras

• .NET 10 SDK is required to build the dotnet/ComponentClassRegistry/ tools from source
• .NET does not need to be installed to run the tools.
• Python for MkDocs is only required if you are rebuilding the documentation site locally (uncommon).

Privileges

Most scripts need elevated privileges:

• Linux: TPM operations, EK retrieval, certain component collection may require root or sudo
• Windows: Administrator privileges are needed for the same reasons.
