The getting-started guide

Pick your platform

Choose your processor explicitly. On a Mac, check About This Mac; on Linux, uname -m identifies the architecture.

Download the matching checksum sidecar into the same directory. On macOS, use shasum -a 256 -c <archive>.sha256; on Linux, use sha256sum -c <archive>.sha256. Only extract/install after verification succeeds. Hashes establish byte consistency, not publisher identity by themselves; review the release provenance separately. Full installation instructions.

On Windows, compare Get-FileHash -Algorithm SHA256 ".\sodapop-0.1.2-windows-amd64.zip" with the published checksum. After successful verification, use Expand-Archive ".\sodapop-0.1.2-windows-amd64.zip" -DestinationPath ".\sodapop" and follow the guide to put the extracted executable on PATH.

Supported platforms

PlatformProcessorsDistribution design
macOSApple silicon / IntelNative archive, Homebrew, npm
LinuxARM64 / x64, glibcNative archive, Homebrew, npm
Windowsx64Native ZIP; npm when included in the published release

This table describes supported build targets, not a claim that every channel is published. npm installs only the native platforms declared by that published package version; Windows requires its qualified ZIP payload. Node.js is required for the npm launcher. Native downloads and Homebrew do not require Go or a separate Copilot installation. Windows ARM64 and musl-based Linux are not supported targets.
