v1.4.0
Quick Start
Visit the Brim Data download page to find the package for your platform.
Zed is distributed as a TGZ/ZIP file of command line executables for each supported platform. To install, unpack with with the appropriate utility for your platform. For example, on Linux:
curl -OL https://github.com/brimdata/zed/releases/download/v1.4.0/zed-v1.4.0.linux-amd64.tar.gz

If you've installed the Brim desktop app and want to work with its Zed lake from the command line, we recommend using the Zed executables included with the app to ensure compatibility. See this Brim wiki article for their location.
