How to install eza

Eza is a listing command with colour and icon support. Treat this as an orientation note. Anything prescriptive should come from the maintainers directly.

How it gets there

In practice this means one of a handful of routes: an operating system package index, a registry tied to a language, a version manager, or a source tree built with the project's own tooling. Which one applies is decided by the platform and by the maintainers.

Who is behind it

Direction comes from the people who write the code. Their decisions on releases and support are the ones that matter.

Worth confirming early

Establish which platforms the current release actually targets. Support ranges shift, and the newest release is frequently not the one suited to an older machine.

Interpreting what you see

Surprises here are rarely the project's fault. Ordering inside the environment decides which copy wins, and that ordering is easy to get wrong.

Scope of this site

This is a notes-only site. Projects stay with their maintainers; nothing is reproduced here.

Where things commonly go wrong

The most frequent surprise is a version that resolves somewhere unexpected. Check which copy is actually being picked up before assuming the project itself misbehaves.
