The install script finds the optimal alternative for installing the latest version on your OS, architecture and distro. It’s the easiest way to get started. It also helps you to install Rust if you haven’t yet.

​
Linux and macOS

curl -sSfL https://www.shuttle.dev/install | bash

​
Windows (PowerShell)

iwr https://www.shuttle.dev/install-win | iex
The install script collects anonymous telemetry data to help improve the product.
No IP address or similar is collected. The collected data is:
  • Platform (OS)
  • Installation method used, and whether it is a new install or upgrade
  • Success/Failure outcome, and which step that failed
  • Start and end times of script execution
You can opt out by setting any of these environment variables to 1 or true:
  • DO_NOT_TRACK
  • DISABLE_TELEMETRY
  • SHUTTLE_DISABLE_TELEMETRY
  • CI
The scripts for both platforms are open source [1] [2]. Improvements are always welcome!
You can install the Shuttle MCP to enable AI coding assistants like Claude and Cursor to access Shuttle documentation, deploy projects, and fetch logs directly from your editor. Making your coding experience even faster and more efficient.

Alternative Installation Methods

​
cargo-binstall

If you prefer using Cargo’s package manager, you can use cargo-binstall: 
cargo binstall cargo-shuttle

​
From Source

For those who prefer building from source: 
cargo install cargo-shuttle
Building from source requires a Rust toolchain and may take longer than other installation methods.

​
Pre-built Binaries

Pre-built binaries for various platforms are available on our GitHub releases page.

​
