Installation Guide
Set up your professional hardware workbench. Intarva is a Self-Contained Ecosystem—the universal installer provides the CLI, transpilers, and runtimes in one package.
1. The Universal Installer
The Intarva toolchain is delivered as a single installer for Windows, macOS, and Linux. This installer automatically bundles the Intarva CLI and all necessary MicroPython and JavaScript runtimes, ensuring a zero-dependency setup.
Windows Setup
Download the .exe installer. It will register the intarva command globally in your system PATH.
macOS / Linux
Run the bundled setup script to link the Intarva binaries to your local shell environment.
Download for macOS →2. Verifying the Toolchain
Once the installer has finished, open your terminal and verify the installation. This confirms that the engine and transpilers are correctly linked.
intarva --help
If the command returns a list of available actions (init, dev, run, etc.), your environment is ready. If the command is not found, please restart your terminal or shell.
3. Listing Available Boards
To see which physical microcontrollers and boards are currently supported by your local engine, use the list command:
intarva list
This will output a registry of supported hardware profiles (e.g., Raspberry Pi Pico, Arduino Uno) that you can use when initializing new projects.
