For platforms with no support for Homebrew, you can download a pre-built binary from our GitHub release page.
There are binaries for macOS, Windows and Linux systems. Unzip the tarball file, add the
kit
or kit.exe
executable in your PATH. Git is required and must be in your PATH. Git version must be >= v2.11.0. Click here to download and install the latest git release.
