How to install renovate

Renovate is developer utility. Releases and documentation are produced by the project team.

About the project

Renovate 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 project is run by its own contributors rather than by a company. Release cadence, supported platforms and documentation are all decided by the team behind it.

How projects are distributed

Packaging differs from project to project. Some publish to system repositories, some to their own index, some only as source archives that a build tool expects.

Before you start

It is worth checking which platforms the current release targets. Support windows differ, and the newest version is not always the one that fits an older machine.

Checking the result

Verifying afterwards is straightforward. If something behaves unexpectedly, check for an older copy earlier in the path, or for a version manager pointing elsewhere.
