- It can be downloaded from GitHub releases or used via Docker.
- Building from source requires tools like libtool, make, automake, and autoconf, with steps for git builds and static linking.
- Support is available via Stack Overflow, Discord, and a Wiki, and it is released under the MIT License with documentation under CC BY 3.0.
