Installation

On debian-based Linux hyper8 can already be installed via packages (amd64). On Arch Linux and Manjaro faircamp is available through the AUR. On macOS faircamp can be installed using Homebrew. On other platforms Hyper 8 needs to be built from source for now (which is not very complicated though), see the instructions at the bottom of the page.

Arch Linux, Manjaro

Install hyper8 from the AUR

Debian 12, Ubuntu 23.04 - 24.04

Install the latest debian 12 package

macOS

With Homebrew, run these two lines to install hyper8 from homebrew-hyper8:

brew tap simonrepp/homebrew-hyper8 https://codeberg.org/simonrepp/homebrew-hyper8
brew install hyper8

Building from source

As prerequisites you need ffmpeg and rust installed on your system, then run these commands:

git clone https://codeberg.org/simonrepp/hyper8.git
cd hyper8
cargo install --locked --path .

To uninstall:

cargo uninstall hyper8
