Pikelet is written in Rust and therefore needs to be compiled with Cargo, because we don't yet offer prebuilt binaries. If you haven't already installed Rust, please install it now!

We've not yet published Pikelet on crates.io, so you'll first need to clone the repository using git:

git clone https://github.com/pikelet-lang/pikelet.git
cd pikelet

After cloning, you can now run the REPL using Cargo:

cargo run repl

You will now need to wait for Cargo to download and build the dependencies, but sooner or later the REPL will be ready for you to interact with!
