## 项目历史与用法

install-nothing is a Rust terminal application that simulates installing things while deliberately not installing anything. Its package history is short, but it fits a recognizable CLI culture niche: a package-manager joke that is still distributed as a real executable.

### 项目历史

The GitHub repository was created in 2025. The README describes a terminal program that simulates installing things, includes an asciinema demo, and documents binary, source, and Docker usage.

Tagged releases began with early 0.x versions and reached v0.5.0 in 2025. The README exposes small controls for selecting or excluding simulated installation stages, keeping the joke interactive rather than a static message.

### 采用历史

The package crossed from a GitHub novelty into package-manager distribution. The input metadata records Homebrew, Nix, and Winget entries, and Homebrew packages the v0.5.0 source archive.

### 使用方式

Users either run the downloaded binary, run it from source with Cargo, or run it in Docker. The command accepts optional stage names and an exclusion flag, then prints simulated installation progress until interrupted or completed.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

For package nerds, install-nothing is mostly a meta-package joke: a real formula whose purpose is to parody installer progress, bootstrap rituals, and the emotional texture of watching dependencies install.

Its significance is in the contradiction between function and packaging. The package has install instructions, releases, binaries, Docker support, and package-manager entries for a tool whose documented job is to do no real installation work.

### 时间线

- 2025: GitHub repository created.
- 2025: v0.3.0, v0.4.x, and v0.5.0 tags appear.
- 2025: Homebrew packages v0.5.0 from the GitHub source archive.

### Related projects

- install-nothing is related more to terminal demos, installer parodies, Rust CLIs, Cargo-built novelty tools, Homebrew joke packages, Nix packaging, and Winget distribution than to a functional dependency manager.
