- chias 7y agoBecause the author hasn't packaged it for you. Cargo is what you'll need to build this from source.
- jxf 7y agoCargo is Rust's build tool. You need cargo because you're building it from source.
- afinlayson 7y agoCargo isn't easily google-able ... I was hoping someone would link how to install it, instead of being sassy. I figured it out. It can be found here: https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation.html https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/getting-started/installation... You can install it easily by running this: curl https://sh.rustup.rs https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
- aspaceman 7y agoVery first result for "cargo tool programming" https://binx.io/blog/2018/11/27/learning-cargo/ https://binx.io/blog/2018/11/27/learning-cargo/ You're getting snark because your own snarky comment is the equivalent of saying "Why do I need Make to run it on the MacOS?" If you had asked instead, "What is cargo, and how do I install it?" you would get more helpful responses. Snark is met with snark.
- mrtksn 7y agoAnd how people are supposed to know that it is a programming tool? I assumed that it is yet another package manager and googling about cargo brings results about logistics. It took me a few tries before figuring it out. What worked was "Install cargo MacOS" and it was hard to tell if the results are not a scam to make me install some spyware.
- sciurus 7y agoYou assumed right, Cargo is the Rust package manager
