Open the Reflex project
Download or clone the project, then open a terminal inside the project folder.
$
cd ~/reflexLinux · native build
Make Reflex
from source.
Build the standalone native command on Linux when you want the latest version or prefer not to use the Debian package. The finished command runs ordinary Reflex files without Python.
Install Rust once
Rust is only required to compile from source. Anyone who uses a released installer does not need it.
$
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | shBuild the native command
Restart your terminal after installing Rust, then make the release build.
$
cargo build --manifest-path native/Cargo.toml --release -p reflex-cliRun Reflex
The executable is ready immediately. Use it with an existing Reflex file.
$
./native/target/release/reflex run examples/hello.rflxWant a system package instead?
Use the published Debian/Ubuntu download from the downloads page. It installs the same standalone native command so you can simply run reflex run hello.rflx.
For a production release, build with the release workflow so the package is tested and distributed consistently.
