Installation

Glistix officially supports Linux, MacOS and Windows. (Note, however, that Nix doesn't support Windows yet, so you won't be able to test your projects, but glistix build should work at least.)

You can install Glistix in one of the following ways.

From GitHub Releases: Regardless of your OS or distribution, you can install Glistix by downloading the latest precompiled binary for your platform at https://github.com/glistix/glistix/releases.
With Nix flakes: Invoke the command below in the command line to download, compile and run a specific release of Glistix - here the latest at the time of writing (v0.4.0).
```
nix run 'github:Glistix/glistix/v0.4.0' -- --help
```
To install permanently, you can either add github:Glistix/glistix/v0.4.0 as an input to your system/Home Manager configuration, or use nix profile:
```
nix profile install 'github:Glistix/glistix/v0.4.0'
```
With Cargo: You can use Cargo to compile and install Glistix's latest release (v0.4.0 at the time of writing):
```
cargo install --git https://github.com/glistix/glistix --tag v0.4.0 --locked
```

Currently, Glistix cannot be installed through nixpkgs.
