Installation

Install roe with the .NET SDK, npm, or prebuilt binaries.

.NET SDK (recommended)

With the .NET SDK 8.0 or later:

dotnet tool install --global roe

Or run it one-shot without installing (.NET 10 SDK or later):

dnx roe .

npm

npm install --global roe-cli

The npm package is called roe-cli (the name roe was already taken on npm), but the command it installs is still roe. To run it one-shot without installing:

npx roe-cli .

Prebuilt binaries

Prebuilt binaries for Linux (x64/arm64), macOS (x64/arm64), and Windows (x64) are attached to GitHub Releases, alongside a SHA256SUMS file for verification.

macOS quarantines binaries downloaded with a browser; clear the quarantine before running:

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine ./roe
