Official channels

The official repo, package path, and binary status in one place.

This page only lists official MarlinSpike distribution surfaces with real links. Visitors should be able to find the repository, source snapshots, package and deployment path, and the current binary status without guessing which channels are public yet.

Official packages

The supported deployment package path today

MarlinSpike is not pretending to ship native package-manager artifacts yet. The official package surface today is the checked-in Docker deployment path and the files that back it.

Official path

Docker Compose deployment

The currently supported package and install path is source plus Docker Compose for server and lab deployments.

Package registries

There are no official Homebrew, apt, yum, winget, Chocolatey, MSI, or similar package registry artifacts published right now.

Official binaries

Where binary releases will live, and what is not published yet

The releases surface is real and public, but binary artifacts are not published there yet. This section makes the official binary channel explicit without implying installers, checksums, or release assets that do not exist.

GitHub releases page

The official release surface already exists on GitHub, but it does not currently contain tagged binary artifacts.

Open releases page

Not published

Standalone binaries

No public Linux, macOS, or Windows standalone binaries are published today. The public install path remains source plus Docker.

Not published

OS installers and packages

There are no signed desktop installers or OS-native packages published yet for direct host installation.

Not published

Checksums and signatures

Checksum and signature files are not published yet because there are no public binary release artifacts to verify.

Official install path

Docker Compose is the published package path today

MarlinSpike is a shared web workbench, so the supported install story is still a Git clone plus Docker Compose on a field host, temporary VM, lab server, or internal staging system behind a reverse proxy.

git clone https://github.com/riverrisk/marlinspike.git
cd marlinspike
cp .env.example .env
docker compose up -d --build

Current public state

What visitors can and cannot get right now

The repo, source archives, docs, and Docker deployment path are all live. Tagged binaries, native package registries, and signed installers are not published yet.
