Installation

To use concrete, you will need the following things:

  • A Rust compiler
  • A C compiler & linker
  • make

The Rust compiler can be installed on Linux and macOS with the following command:

curl  --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Other rust installation methods are available on the rust website.

macOS

To have the required C compiler and linker you'll either need to install the full XCode IDE (that you can install from the AppleStore) or install the Xcode Command Line Tools by typing the following command:

xcode-select --install

Apple Silicon

Concrete currently only supports the x86_64 architecture. You can however, use it on Apple Silicon chip thanks to Rosetta at the expense of slower execution times.

To do so, you need to compile concrete for the x86_64 architecture and let Rosetta2 handle the conversion, we do that by using the x86_64 toolchain.

First install the needed rust toolchain:

# Install the macOS x86_64 toolchain (you only need to do this once)
rustup toolchain install --force-non-host stable-x86_64-apple-darwin

Then you can either:

  • Manually specify the toolchain to use in each of the cargo commands:

For example:

cargo +stable-x86_64-apple-darwin build
cargo +stable-x86_64-apple-darwin test
  • Or override the toolchain to use:
rustup override set stable-x86_64-apple-darwin
# cargo will use the `stable-x86_64-apple-darwin` toolchain.
cargo build

Linux

On linux, installing the required components depends on your distribution. But for the typical Debian-based/Ubuntu-based distributions, running the following command will install the needed packages:

sudo apt install build-essential

Windows

Concrete is not currently supported natively on Windows but could be installed through the WSL.
