Download a Binary Manually

We automatically build binaries for some platforms which can be found on the Releases page.

Install via Cargo

Knope is written in Rust and published on crates.io which means it can therefore be built from source by:

  1. Installing cargo via Rustup
  2. Running cargo install knope

Warning

Building Knope can be quite slow, if possible, it's recommended to download a prebuilt binary instead.

Build from Source

  1. Install the current Rust stable toolchain via Rustup
  2. Clone the GitHub repo
  3. cargo install --path . in the cloned directory
