🛠️ How It Works

  1. Detects your OS (Windows/Linux/macOS) and architecture
  2. Downloads the appropriate installer from official sources
  3. Installs silently using OS-specific methods
  4. Configures environment variables (PATH, etc.)
  5. Verifies installation by running version checks
  6. Cleans up temporary files
