## Installation

Install Frontier on macOS, Windows, Linux, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, and on any machine. Refer this for [installations](https://raystack.github.io/frontier/docs/installation).

#### Binary (Cross-platform)

Download the appropriate version for your platform from [releases](https://github.com/raystack/frontier/releases) page. Once downloaded, the binary can be run from anywhere.
You don’t need to install it into a global location. This works well for shared hosts and other systems where you don’t have a privileged account.
Ideally, you should install it somewhere in your PATH for easy use. `/usr/local/bin` is the most probable location.

#### macOS

`frontier` is available via a Homebrew Tap, and as downloadable binary from the [releases](https://github.com/raystack/frontier/releases/latest) page:

```sh
brew install raystack/tap/frontier
```

To upgrade to the latest version:

```
brew upgrade frontier
```

#### Linux

`frontier` is available as downloadable binaries from the [releases](https://github.com/raystack/frontier/releases/latest) page. Download the `.deb` or `.rpm` from the releases page and install with `sudo dpkg -i` and `sudo rpm -i` respectively.

#### Windows

`frontier` is available via [scoop](https://scoop.sh/), and as a downloadable binary from the [releases](https://github.com/raystack/frontier/releases/latest) page:

```
scoop bucket add frontier https://github.com/raystack/scoop-bucket.git
```

To upgrade to the latest version:

## Usage

Frontier is purely API-driven. It is very easy to get started with Frontier. It provides CLI, HTTP and GRPC APIs for simpler developer experience.

#### CLI

Frontier CLI is fully featured and simple to use, even for those who have very limited experience working from the command line. Run `frontier --help` to see list of all available commands and instructions to use.

List of commands

```
frontier --help
```

Print command reference

```sh
frontier reference
```

#### API

Frontier provides a fully-featured GRPC and HTTP API to interact with Frontier server. Both APIs adheres to a set of standards that are rigidly followed. Please refer to [proton](https://github.com/raystack/proton/tree/main/raystack/frontier/v1beta1) for GRPC API definitions.

#### Web

The web frontend — the admin dashboard, the `@raystack/frontier` JS SDK, and a client demo app — lives in [`web/`](web/README.md). See its [README](web/README.md) for setup and local development.
