:description: Helidon CLI
:keywords: helidon cli
== Introduction
The Helidon CLI lets you easily create a Helidon project by picking from a
set of archetypes. It also supports a developer loop that performs continuous
compilation and application restart, so you can easily iterate over source
code changes.
The CLI is distributed as a standalone executable (compiled using GraalVM) for
ease of installation. It is currently available as download for Linux and Mac.
Simply download the binary, install it at a location accessible from your PATH
and youre ready to go.
== Installation
[source,bash]
.MacOS
----
curl -O https://helidon.io/cli/latest/darwin/helidon

sudo mv ./helidon /usr/local/bin/

[source,bash]
.Linux
----
curl -O https://helidon.io/cli/latest/linux/helidon
chmod +x ./helidon
sudo mv ./helidon /usr/local/bin/

== Create a New Project
