Install THT

What You Need 

To run THT, you will need these requirements.

• PHP 5.6+ or 7.0+ (Recommended: 7.1+)
• MacOS or Linux. (Windows eventually)

PHP Version

PHP is usually pre-installed on most platforms, so you’re probably okay.

You can run php -v to double-check your PHP version.

If you need to install or update PHP, try these guides:

• MacOS
• Linux - Ubuntu

Step 1: Run the Install Command 

Open up your Terminal app or command line shell.

Run this command to install THT in your local user directory.

curl -s -o tht.sh https://tht-lang.org/install && source tht.sh

Step 2: Make Sure It Worked 

The installer automatically checks itself, but let’s double-check just in case.

Run the tht command without arguments.

$ tht

If everything worked, you should see the help page, like this:
