How to Install and Use JEDI Code Library and JEDI Visual Component Library in Delphi 10.3 Rio
The JEDI Code Library (JCL) and the JEDI Visual Component Library (JVCL) are two open source projects that provide a set of useful and well-tested utility functions, classes and components for Delphi and C++ Builder developers. The JCL contains non-visual classes and functions that cover various topics such as strings, files, security, math and more. The JVCL contains over 600 visual and non-visual components that enhance the functionality and appearance of your applications.

In this article, we will show you how to install and use the JCL and JVCL in Delphi 10.3 Rio, the latest version of Embarcadero's RAD Studio IDE. We will assume that you have already installed Delphi 10.3 Rio on your computer.
Step 1: Download the JCL and JVCL from GitHub
The official source code repositories for the JCL and JVCL are hosted on GitHub. You can download them as ZIP files or clone them with GIT. We recommend using GIT as it allows you to easily update your local copies with the latest changes from the online repositories.
To clone the JCL repository, open a command prompt and type:
git clone https://github.com/project-jedi/jcl.git jcl
This will create a folder named jcl in your current directory and download the JCL source code into it.
To clone the JVCL repository, open another command prompt and type:
git clone https://github.com/project-jedi/jvcl.git jvcl
This will create a folder named jvcl in your current directory and download the JVCL source code into it.
If you prefer to download the ZIP files instead of cloning with GIT, you can find them at:
https://github.com/project-jedi/jcl/archive/master.zip for the JCL
https://github.com/project-jedi/jvcl/archive/master.zip for the JVCL
After downloading the ZIP files, extract them to your desired folders.
Step 2: Run the Installers for the JCL and JVCL
Before you can use the JCL and JVCL in your Delphi projects, you need to run their installers to compile and register their packages in your IDE. The installers are batch files that can be found in the root folders of the JCL and JVCL repositories.
To run the installer for the JCL, open a command prompt in the jcl folder and type:
install.bat
This will launch a graphical installer that will guide you through the installation process. You can choose which versions of Delphi and C++ Builder you want to install the JCL for, which features you want to enable or disable, where you want to store the compiled packages and more. The installer will also run some tests to check if your installation is successful.
To run the installer for the JVCL, open a command prompt in the jvcl folder and type:
install.bat
This will launch a similar graphical installer that will guide you through the installation process for the JVCL. You can choose which versions of Delphi and C++ Builder you want to install the JVCL for, which components you want to include or exclude, where you want to store the compiled packages and more. The installer will also run some tests to check if your installation is successful.
Step 3: Use the JCL and JVCL in Your Delphi Projects
After installing the JCL and JVCL, you can start using them in your Delphi projects. To use a unit from the JCL, simply add it to your uses clause. For example:
uses
SysUtils,
Classes,
JclSysInfo; // unit from the
