  • nan is a ieee754-defined error. what javascript calls errors these days (it tends to change a lot) has little to nothing to do with that. it’s on every developer to familiarise themself with ieee754, it’s one of the most important documents in the profession.

    while nan is an invalid floating-point number, it is a valid value for a float-typed field. making it into an error is like adding a bit labelled “crash” to every number in your program.

    if they direct you to github for downloads, and don’t point you directly to the releases page, and don’t have anything about installation in the readme, then that’s on them. personally, i’d click “releases” anyway because that sounds like a word associated with products.

    like, try downloading something from the steam workshop with no prior exposure to steam (eg, from the web browser and not logged in) then get back to me.
