Installing on Linux

To install Synnax on a Linux distribution, run the following command to download the latest binary:

curl -LO github.com/synnaxlabs/synnax/releases/download/synnax-v0.55.0/synnax-v0.55.0-linux

We recommend you move the binary into a directory that is in your PATH. Most of our users use /usr/local/bin:

sudo mv synnax-v0.55.0-linux /usr/local/bin/synnax

If usr/local/bin is not in your PATH, you can temporarily add it by running the following:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin

Or, you can add it permanently using the following one-liner for your shell:

echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin' >> ~/.bashrc

Or, for zsh:

echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin' >> ~/.zshrc

If any previous versions of Synnax are installed and available on your PATH, you may need to remove them to avoid conflicts.

Next, give execution permissions to the binary:

chmod +x /usr/local/bin/synnax

You may need to use sudo to run the above command if you do not have the necessary permissions.

To verify that the installation was successful, run:

synnax --version

You should see the following output:

Synnax v0.55.0
