Urbit

Urbit is a new programming and execution environment designed from scratch. Any resemblance to existing languages or operating systems is coincidental, cosmetic, or inevitable.

There is a lot to explain. For more information, watch a demo screencast and see the Urbit website.

System Requirements

Currently we support OS X, Ubuntu, Debian, and Amazon Linux.

Urbit depends on the following packages:

• GNU Multiple Precision Arithmetic Library
• OpenSSL
• libsigsegv
• ncurses

Building Urbit

See the documentation for instructions on building and running Urbit.
