● Beginner5 minBefore this: The Terminal
One clone, one build. A single-command installer comes with the first public release.
Kavach is young and moves fast, so today you build it from source. You need Rust (Kavach's compiler is written in it) and git. Windows, Linux and WSL all work.
git clone https://github.com/Mithlesh04/kavach
cd kavach
cargo build --release -p kavach-cli
The build takes a few minutes, once. The program lands at target/release/kavach: add that folder to your PATH, and kavach works in every terminal.
Your editor
The VS Code extension in editors/vscode adds colors, errors as you type, and go-to-definition.
