Factor is a general-purpose programming language designed for building large-scale systems. In this tutorial, we will walk through the steps to install Factor on macOS.
The easiest way to install Factor on macOS is by using Homebrew, a popular package manager for macOS. If you don't have Homebrew installed on your machine, you can install it by running the following command in your terminal:
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
Once Homebrew is installed, you can use it to install Factor by running the following command in your terminal:
brew install factor
This will download and install Factor and all its dependencies on your system.
After the installation is complete, you can verify that Factor is installed by running the following command in your terminal:
factor
If Factor is installed correctly, you should see the Factor prompt in your terminal.
Factor is now installed on your macOS machine! You can start using the language for your programming needs. If you encounter any issues during the installation process, you can refer to the Factor documentation or seek help from the community.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
