Best practice for users to get the binary installed?

[sckott]

@JosiahParry if a rust package is not on crates.io, what's best practice for having users install a rust cli tool like this? Is it maybe cargo install --git https://github.com/sckott/rt-cli.git ? Or something else? Build binaries and add them to releases in the repo?

Yes that is right! There is also a library called cargo dist (which I haven’t used yet) that helps create installers for various OS
