Getting started

Install the Axint compiler.

Install the compiler once, then use the same CLI to compile locally, publish to the Registry, and install packages into real projects.

Install paths

Use npm if your workflow is Node-first, or pipx if you want the Python distribution on your machine. Both expose the same axint CLI.

The Registry relies on the open-source compiler CLI. There is no separate registry-only binary.

npm
$ npm install -g @axint/compiler
PyPI
$ pipx install axint

Verify the install

Once installed, the CLI should report the current version and expose registry commands like login, publish, add, and search.

  • Use axint init to scaffold a local project.
  • Use axint compile to generate Swift from a source file.
  • Use axint login before publishing to the Registry.
