One-liner

For Linux or MacOSx users, you can install Lightpanda with following command. For Windows, take a look at the dedicated section.

curl -fsSL https://pkg.lightpanda.io/install.sh | bash
ℹ️

curl, jq and sha256sum are required to install Lightpanda with the one-liner installer.

By default the installer installs the last nightly build. But you can pick a specific release:

curl -fsSL https://pkg.lightpanda.io/install.sh | bash -s "v0.2.5"

Windows + WSL2

The Lightpanda browser is compatible to run on Windows inside WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). If WSL has not been installed before follow these steps (for more information see: MS Windows install WSL). Install & open WSL + Ubuntu from an administrator shell:

  1. wsl --install
  2. — restart —
  3. wsl --install -d Ubuntu
  4. wsl

Once WSL and a Linux distribution have been installed the browser can be installed in the same way it is installed for Linux. Inside WSL install the Lightpanda browser:

curl -L -o lightpanda https://github.com/lightpanda-io/browser/releases/download/nightly/lightpanda-x86_64-linux && \ chmod a+x ./lightpanda

Telemetry

By default, Lightpanda collects and sends usage telemetry. This can be disabled by setting an environment variable LIGHTPANDA_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=true. You can read Lightpanda’s privacy policy at: https://lightpanda.io/privacy-policy.
