==Unix-like platforms==

Currently devkitPro provides precompiled versions of devkitARM for the following Unix-like platforms: Linux (~~x86/x64~~), macOS (~~universal binary~~). Note that Linux ~~x64~~ binaries are usable under WSL.

Currently devkitPro provides precompiled versions of devkitARM for the following Unix-like platforms: Linux (x86_64), macOS (x86_64). Note that Linux x86_64 binaries are usable under WSL.

* First, you need to install curl so the installer can download the devkitARM packages, and you should also install Git - you'll need it to update ~~libctru~~ or share your code on GitHub, among many other things. If you are running Linux, you'll also need wget; it comes preinstalled on most distributions, but not all.

* First, you need to install curl so the installer can download the devkitARM packages, and you should also install Git - you'll need it to update libnx or share your code on GitHub, among many other things. If you are running Linux, you'll also need wget; it comes preinstalled on most distributions, but not all.

* Find your way into a shell (eg. by opening a Terminal window), and follow the instructions for your OS:

Line 34:

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devkitPro/installer/master/perl/devkitARMupdate.pl -o devkitARMupdate.pl

chmod +x ./devkitARMupdate.pl

~~sudo~~ ./devkitARMupdate.pl ~~/opt/devkitpro~~

./devkitARMupdate.pl

</pre>

* Finally, we need to tell your shell where to find the devkitARM binaries.

You can either use sudo here or chown /opt/devkitpro to be writable by your user before running the script.

~~<pre>~~

~~echo "export DEVKITPRO=~~/opt/devkitpro~~" >> ~/~~.~~bashrc~~

~~echo "export DEVKITARM=/opt/devkitpro/devkitARM" >> ~/.bashrc~~

~~source ~/.bashrc~~

~~</pre>~~
