Installation & Setup

Install Tachyon with one command and verify it on your machine.

Updated Sep 19, 2026

Tachyon ships as a single self-contained binary. No runtime, no account, no telemetry. Your browser is the workspace.

Install

Install or update
curl -fsSL https://www.tachyon.run/install.sh | bash

The installer picks the fastest build for your machine automatically: Rust where a native build exists, otherwise the identical Go fallback. Same UI, same flags, same results.

Verify

Check the install
tachyon --version
tachyon ~/your-project
  • Runs on 127.0.0.1 only — local by design
  • Re-run the installer any time to update
  • Or run tachyon --update from an existing install

Air-gapped or distro-packaged machines: set TACHYON_NO_UPDATE=1 to silence the daily update check.
