[Documentation] Add clearer installation instructions for each architecture
Cardosaum opened this issue · comments
Objective
Users should be able to install RISC Zero's toolchain without any doubts around:
- If their computer architecture is supported
- Which command they should use to install RISC Zero's toolchain
- How to check if the installation succeeded
Obstacle
We've noticed users from architectures other than aarch64-apple-darwin and x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu to have doubts on exact steps on how to install the toolchain and whether their computer architecture would be supported at all.
For x86_64-apple-darwin for example, there is a difference between what we mention in cargo-risczero docs and in our docs website - This generates confusion and uncertainty to if it would be possible to run the r0vm in this architecture at all. (This issue is being tracked at #1641 )
Request
We should provide clear and distinct installation instructions for each path of installing RISC Zero's toolchain.
We should have a subsection in our installation docs for:
- Architectures with prebuilt binaries
- Architectures that have custom installation instructions - (i.e
x86_64-apple-darwin) - How to install and update from source to all other architectures
