In VAF there will also be a vaf_linux_amd64 binary for linux users already compiled by me, but that’s not going to be always updated
Linux: Install
nim using: curl https://nim-lang.org/choosenim/init.sh -sSf | sh
and adding nim to path
Windows: Download
nim from https://nim-lang.org/install_windows.html and run finish.exe
(you might need to reopen a cmd window for nim to load)
nimble build
A vaf binary file will be created in your directory ready to be used
