Installation¶

OpenCode has a terminal interface, a desktop version, and extensions for different IDEs, although it is recommended to use the terminal version as it is more optimized than the other versions

Desktop Installation (Beta Version)¶

Download directly from their website according to your operating system.

Terminal Version (TUI) Installation¶

For the terminal version, if you use Linux or MacOS then it is pretty straightforward, but in case you use Windows, you need to have npm or bun.

npm i -g opencode-ai

bun add -g opencode-ai

curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash

curl -fsSL https://opencode.ai/install | bash

After successful installation run this to open OpenCode

opencode
