  • Beads (bd) - Loom requires Beads for task management
  • Git - For version control operations

​

Loom requires Beads (bd) to be installed first: 
# Install Beads
go install github.com/uttufy/beads/cmd/bd@latest

# Verify installation
bd version
Initialize Beads in your project: 
cd your-project
bd init

From Source

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/uttufy/loom.git
cd loom

# Build
go build ./cmd/loom

# Move to PATH (optional)
mv loom /usr/local/bin/

​
Using Go Install

​
Verify Installation

loom version

​
Initialize Configuration

Create a default configuration file: 
# Initialize in current directory
loom config init

# Or specify a path
loom config init --config /path/to/loom.yaml
This creates a loom.yaml file with sensible defaults.
