Quick install (Linux, macOS)

curl -fsSL https://gramdown.tobythe.dev/install.sh | sh

This detects your platform, verifies the download’s checksum, and installs to ~/.local/bin (override with GRAMDOWN_INSTALL_DIR). It always installs the latest release unless you pin one: GRAMDOWN_VERSION=1.2.3 sh install.sh.

Which one do I want?

  • Linux (x64) for most servers and desktop Linux; arm64 for Raspberry Pi, AWS Graviton and similar.
  • macOS (Apple silicon) for M1 and later; macOS (Intel) for pre-2020 Macs.

Running it

# macOS / Linux: make it executable, then run it
chmod +x gramdown-*
./gramdown-* draft.docx -o draft.md

On macOS the first run is blocked by Gatekeeper; allow it under System Settings → Privacy & Security, or remove the quarantine flag with xattr -d com.apple.quarantine gramdown-*.

Already have Node.js?

If Node.js is set up on your machine, you can install the CLI with npm instead and update it the same way:

npm install -g gramdown

See the CLI reference for every flag and exit code.
