Get Amp

Amp is written in Ruby, so you'll need that first. We don't have a self-contained installer, yet. If you'd like to help with that, check out how to help!

Amp also has a couple other, very basic, requirements right now.

  • Linux or Mac OS X. Testing on Linux has been minimal as of yet
  • Ruby 1.8.6+, Ruby 1.9
  • A C compiler is required for amp's high-performance extensions

Once you have Ruby, you simply need to run the following command from your favorite command line:

sudo gem install amp --no-wrappers

Amp's gem is hosted on Rubyforge and Gemcutter.
