Step 1: Download the Installer

Step 2: Run the Installer

Step 3: Activate your client atSign

curl -L https://github.com/atsign-foundation/noports/releases/latest/download/universal.sh -o universal.sh

To check if the installation downloaded correctly:

stat universal.sh

Make the script executable and run the script.

chmod u+x universal.sh
./universal.sh

If you've activated your client atSign on another device already, this step will not work. Instead, follow this guide: Reuse your client atSign on another machine

This command activates your atSign and prompts you to enter an OTP. This is only done during the setup of a brand new atsign.

~/.local/bin/at_activate -a @<REPLACE>_client

Enter the One Time Password (OTP) & Check your SPAM/PROMOTIONS folders

at_activate will pause and wait for the input of a one time pin (OTP) sent to your email or phone number. Once activated, the master keys will save at ~/.atsign/keys.
