Info:

Po-util is a handy script for installing and using the Particle Toolchain on Ubuntu-based distros and OSX. It downloads and installs: dfu-util, nodejs, gcc-arm-embedded, particle-cli, and the Particle Firmware source code. Information about po-util can be found on my website. https://po-util.com

Manual Install / Update

If you already have po-util installed, run po update and po install to update and re-install.

You can get a copy of po-util at the Github repository. The easiest way is to download po-util.sh from this link and run:

./po-util.sh install

To setup po-util and install dependencies.

Alternatively, you can clone po-util with git:

git clone https://github.com/nrobinson2000/po-util
cd po-util
./po-util.sh install

When installing po-util, an alias is added to your .bashrc that allows you to run po from anywhere to use po-util.

Quick Install / Update

curl po-util.com/download | bash

Copy and paste this into your terminal.

Note: We download everything from well known locations and Github. While we believe this is a reasonable method as a quick start, it's always a good idea to know what is going on under the hood.
