linux compilation and README #2
Description
Hello,
I like your project and will do some tests with it when I have more time, but please update the "installation" in your readme.
On Linux (and I guess Windows), we need to run :
cargo build --release -p perrycargo build --release -p perry-runtime
If I run only cargo build --release, then I have this error:
error: `objc2` only works on Apple platforms. Pass `--target aarch64-apple-darwin` or similar to compile for macOS. (If you're absolutely certain that you're using GNUStep, you can specify that with the `gnustep-x-y` Cargo feature instead).
Which is normal objc2 is only available on MacOS...
But if I understand well, only people using MacOS can help improve this project?
I don´t know if it's in your roadmap, but it would be easier if you could provide an install script (like the one for bun ; and have the upgrade feature too) or make perry available via global npm.
Also, while I am here, the links in Ecosystem are broken!

I don't know much about Rust, but I found out that we can just run this on Linux:
cargo build --release --locked(no need to run the two commands like I put in the first message)proggeramlug commentedon Mar 5, 2026
thanks @lludol for bringing this up! I've just commited a few fixes here. Linux problem confirmed and fixed as well as the broken links.
Should be all good now!
