Dependencies & Host Environment

avm is compiled directly to machine code with zero external runtime dependencies.

Supported Operating Systems

  • • macOS (Apple Silicon arm64, Intel x86_64)
  • • Linux (x86_64, aarch64; glibc)
  • • Windows x64 with PowerShell, cmd.exe forwarding and native plugins

Runtime Dependencies

No language runtime required. Plugin installs use host tools such as curl and tar; Android also needs a JDK (and unzip on Unix). No Node.js, Python, Ruby, or GCC is required to run the core avm-bin.
