πŸ’Ύ Install Eask

This document guides you through the installation of Eask.

πŸ’Ύ Quick Install

Binary (Cross-platform)

Download the appropriate version for your platform from Eask Releases. Once downloaded, the binary can be run from anywhere. You don’t need to install it in a global location. This works well for shared hosts and other systems where you don’t have a privileged account.

Ideally, you should install it somewhere in your PATH for easy use. /usr/local/bin is the most probable location.

$ curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/emacs-eask/cli/master/webinstall/install.sh | sh

Using Shell (Windows)
