How to install Glamorous Toolkit

The easiest way to install Glamorous Toolkit is to download a pre-built distribution for a target operating system from gtoolkit.com/download.

Glamorous Toolkit is developed using Trunk Based Development. The root gtoolkit repository is hosted on github.com/feenkcom/gtoolkit with the main trunk branch called main and the release branch called release. Developers of Glamorous Toolkit do not commit to the release branch; instead, they stream small commits directly into the trunk (main). Therefore, team members build Glamorous Toolkit from the latest sources, as they call it—the bleeding edge.

To orchestrate the build process and make it cross-platform, the team uses a small tool written in Rust called gt-installer. See How to use gt-installer for a detailed command reference.

The easiest way to create a local build ready for development is to run the following command:

The above-mentioned command provides developers with the exact commands to start Glamorous Toolkit from the terminal.
