Latest Released 16 October 2026 · What's new in 2.1.0

Download Zasper 2.1.0

One static binary for macOS, Linux and Windows. Install it with the package manager you already use, or download it directly. To run notebooks you also need a Jupyter kernel, which Zasper does not install; pip install ipykernel is enough to start, and Installing Jupyter Kernels covers other languages.

Package managers

macOS · Linux

Homebrew

Once, before installing
brew tap zasper-io/tap
brew trust zasper-io/tap
Install
brew install zasper-io/tap/zasper

brew upgrade zasper

Homebrew 6 loads nothing from a third-party tap until you trust it.

Snaps also update themselves, several times a day.

Linux · Windows · Intel Mac

Binaries

Or download the binary

macOS

Signed and notarized.

Linux

Static: runs on any distribution.

Windows

The built-in terminal needs WSL.

To upgrade a binary, replace the zasper you have with the new one; zasper --version says which you have, and a Zasper already running keeps the old one until you restart it. Before moving to a new major version, read its upgrading notes in Installation.

To check a download, fetch zasper_2.1.0_checksums.txt and run sha256sum -c zasper_2.1.0_checksums.txt --ignore-missing beside it. On Windows, run Get-FileHash on the download in PowerShell and compare the hash with its line in that file. Older versions are on GitHub Releases.
