Getting Started

There are different ways to get started with Arturo.
Pick the one that suits you best and you are ready to go :)

Pre-built binaries

Arturo comes with its own pre-built binaries - for, practically, all OSes - so, technically, it doesn't require any "installation". All you have to do is download one of them and run it - that's it!

⇩ Download Arturo

The alternative way

curl -sSL https://get.arturo-lang.io | sh

For Unix/Mac, you may also copy-paste the code above in your terminal and Arturo's most recent stable version will be automatically installed. To get the most recent (nightly) build, just use: curl -sSL https://get.arturo-lang.io/latest | sh

Manually

Other methods

Docker

Although it won't cut it, if what you need is the real-deal compiler for everyday use, if you just need a taste of it, the Docker image will absolutely do.

Just use the existing docker image:

docker run -it arturolang/arturo

or (to run a specific local script):

docker run -it -v $(pwd):/home arturolang/arturo <yourscript.art>

Homebrew

If you are on macOS, you can easily install Arturo using Homebrew as well - although I cannot guarantee it will be the latest version:

brew install arturo
