Install Nillion
Install the Nillion SDK, including the nada tool you'll use to create a Nada project and the nillion-devnet tool you'll use to spin up a local Nillion network.
Use nilup to install the Nillion SDK
1. Install nilup, the Nillion SDK tool installer and version manager.
Nillion SDK binaries are available for Linux and macOS platforms. For Windows installation, make sure to follow our Windows developer environment setup guide ahead of installing binaries.
For the security-conscious, please download the install.sh script, so that you can inspect how
it works, before piping it to bash.
curl https://nilup.nilogy.xyz/install.sh | bash
Close your terminal. Open a new terminal and confirm global nilup tool installation
nilup -V
2. Use nilup to install the latest version of the Nillion SDK.
nilup install latest
nilup use latest
nilup init

In doing this, you consent to the collection of telemetry data by the Nillion Network. While we will not collect any personal information, we still recommend using a new wallet address that cannot be linked to your identity by any third party.
