Installation

Tip releases are built from the latest commit on the acton git repo main branch. They are built at least once a night, so can be thought of as nightlies but more up to date.

For Debian derivative distributions that use .dpkg and the APT ecosystem. Add the Acton APT tip repo and install from there:

wget -q -O - https://apt.acton-lang.io/acton.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://aptip.acton-lang.io/ tip main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/acton.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -qy acton
