Installation

Pre-built binaries

Every release publishes pre-built binaries on the GitHub releases page for:

  • Linux (x86_64, aarch64)
  • macOS (x86_64, aarch64)
  • Windows (x86_64)

Download the archive for your platform, extract it, and place the mc binary somewhere on your PATH:

$ tar -xzf mc-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
$ install -m 755 mc /usr/local/bin/mc
$ mc --version

Building from source

mc is written in Rust and builds with a recent stable toolchain:

$ git clone https://github.com/afrigon/mc
$ cd mc
$ cargo build --release

The binary is produced at target/release/mc.
