Description

Please have the compile.sh script test for the assumed binaries like zip, unzip, npm, sbt(?) play and activate.

Is it possible to update the compile.sh script to use the sbt console's play commands?

The wording of "get the latest copy of Play framework from https://www.playframework.com/download. Once play is installed, make sure the play command is in your $PATH" seems to be out of date with the fact that play 2.3.0 onwards does not include a play command.

Research direction

Read compile.sh first and run it to identify how it currently checks for zip, unzip, npm, sbt, play, and activate. Update the script's dependency checks and Play-related commands to match the sbt console approach described in the issue, and ensure its installation wording no longer assumes a play command is included from Play 2.3.0 onward.
