How to install carthage

Carthage is a developer utility. Development happens publicly, and releases are published by the project maintainers.

About the project

Carthage is developer utility. The maintainers own the project, choose releases, and publish their own documentation. This page records a few things worth knowing before you begin.

The maintainers own the project. They choose release timing, publish announcements, and write the documentation themselves. Nothing about that process is controlled from here.

Typical distribution routes

Projects of this kind are usually reached through the operating system's package index, through a language-specific registry, or by building the published source tree. Which route applies depends on the platform and on the maintainers' own guidance.

Check compatibility first

Look at the supported versions before anything else. Projects narrow their platform range over time, and older systems can be dropped without much warning.

Afterwards

Most surprises here come down to path ordering or to two copies being present at once. Checking which one resolves first usually explains the difference.
