Install

Install script (macOS and Linux)

Available with the first release (#18).

curl -fsSL https://getkitchn.com/install.sh | sh

The script downloads the prebuilt binary for your platform from the latest GitHub release and verifies its SHA-256 checksum before installing it.

Cargo

Available once the kitchn crate is published with the first release.

cargo install kitchn --locked

From source

This works today. kitchn needs the Rust toolchain pinned in the repository’s rust-toolchain.toml; rustup installs it automatically. The install step also needs just.

git clone https://github.com/lemarier/kitchn
cd kitchn
just install

just install runs cargo install and records the commit you built, which guided house init needs to pin its built-in guidance. It records it only from a clean checkout whose commit is on a remote branch; otherwise it prints why and installs without it. That binary still works, but house init then needs --bundle <path>.

Note

The install script and the kitchn crate are not published yet (#18). A source build installs the kitchn binary today.

Check the install

kitchn --version
kitchn --help

Next: set up your first house. It takes about two minutes.
