Installation

The Cambrian transpiler is built from the proprietary cambrian-lang workspace (see Prerequisites for access). It uses the standard Rust toolchain. After prerequisites and a successful build, you can transpile .cam programs to the public targets evm and lean.

Steps

1. Prerequisites — Rust via rustup; optional Foundry and Lean 4 + Lake for EVM / Lean targets; access to cambrian-lang.
2. Building from Source — from the workspace root, run cargo build --release and put cambrian-transpiler on your PATH.
3. Editor Setup (optional) — associate .cam files and install the TextMate grammar for VS Code / Cursor.

Once the binary works, continue with the Quick Start.
