       * [[install|ACT]]: use this if you only want the core language and some basic tools for custom circuit design. The [[install_actflow|actflow build]] installs this repository as well.
 We also have a [[summer2024:dockersetup|docker container]] that contains the tools, if you'd like to try them out without installing them on your system.
 If you are a Homebrew user, check out the [[https://github.com/asyncvlsi/homebrew-tap|homebrew tap]] for the tools.
