Install

Download tratto from the download page. It reads the latest published release and offers the files for your system, with the SHA-256 of each one.

What you need

Linux on x86_64. Builds for other processors are not made.
Git installed. tratto runs the git on your system: the one on your PATH, else /usr/bin/git. Without it, cloning says that no usable Git was found. Install it with your package manager, for example sudo pacman -S git or sudo apt install git.

Linux: the AppImage

The AppImage is one file that runs on most distributions.

mkdir -p ~/Applications
          mv ~/Downloads/tratto-0.2.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage ~/Applications/
          chmod +x ~/Applications/tratto-0.2.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage
          sha256sum ~/Applications/tratto-0.2.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage    # compare with the download page
          ~/Applications/tratto-0.2.0-linux-x86_64.AppImage

The chmod +x matters: a browser download loses the permission to run.

Linux: the tarball

The tarball holds the same program as a folder: tratto, and next to it the helper programs it starts (tratto-sidecar for Git, tratto-ai for the AI tools, tratto-fleet for the Agents module, tratto-db).

sha256sum ~/Downloads/tratto-0.2.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz          # compare with the download page
          mkdir -p ~/Applications/tratto
          tar -xzf ~/Downloads/tratto-0.2.0-linux-x86_64.tar.gz -C ~/Applications/tratto
          ~/Applications/tratto/tratto-0.2.0-linux-x86_64/tratto

Keep the files together: tratto looks for its helpers next to itself. To add tratto to your desktop menu, run the install.sh that comes in the folder; run it again if you move the folder:

~/Applications/tratto/tratto-0.2.0-linux-x86_64/install.sh

The AppImage does not add a menu entry itself.

macOS

macOS is not available yet. The build is ready to be signed and notarized by Apple; it will be published once it is, as a disk image you drag to Applications. It will need macOS 12 or later.

Windows

Windows is not supported yet.

Updates

The AppImage updates itself: it downloads a newer version and installs it when you restart or quit. The tarball does not; unpack the new version beside the old one. See Updates & releases.
