Channels: stable vs edge

stable (the default) installs the latest tagged release. edge installs the rolling prerelease rebuilt from the tip of main on every code change — handy for trying unreleased fixes.

Linux / macOS

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/voidprojectssoftware/protostar/main/scripts/install.sh | sh -s -- --channel edge

Windows (PowerShell)

Fetch then invoke with -Channel (the piped one-liner can't take params):

& ([scriptblock]::Create((irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/voidprojectssoftware/protostar/main/scripts/install.ps1))) -Channel edge

Edge binaries report a prerelease version like 0.2.0-alpha.0.7. Re-run the same command to update.
