Hi @chuongmep - is there a particular package you found would not download?

@wangyangshi Is D4R still depending on a local install of Revit depending on the branch? If yes, can we document it somehow?

[wangyangshi]

Do you mean RevitAPI? for released branch of D4R, it depends on a fixed version of RevitAPI (like 23.0.0.261 in 2023) for master branch of D4R, it depends on the latest version of RevitAPI (like 24.0.0.315)

@wangyangshi Understood, I think we probably lack documenation of how user can get this dll and where can they find it?

[wangyangshi]

@QilongTang RevitAPI.dll and RevitAPIUI.dll are installed with Revit, user can search it in his computer, their path are same with revit.exe. for other versions they can find it on nuget or somewhere I think. do we need to add this explanation in d4r README?

Please do, as a former developer on this repo, I understand how to find them but other developers may not, and admitedly it is hard to figure out which RevitAPI.dll is required for which release branch/master

[wangyangshi]

OK, I will add these info in D4R README
