The basic recipe

Find the Zip file listed matching the architecture you’re running and download it
- (e.g. if you’re on a Windows 10 laptop/Surface with a amd64 style CPU you’d choose the Zip file with “windows-amd64” in the name).
Download the zip file and unzip the file.
Copy the contents of the folder named “bin” to a folder that is in your path
- (e.g. “$HOME/bin” is common).
Adjust your PATH if needed
- (e.g. export PATH=“HOME/bin:PATH”)
