The easiest way to get Cargo is to install the current stable release of [Rust]
by using `rustup`. Installing Rust using `rustup` will also install `cargo`.

On Linux and macOS systems, this is done as follows:

```console
$ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh
```

It will download a script, and start the installation. If everything goes well,
you'll see this appear:

```console
Rust is installed now. Great!
```

On Windows, download and run [rustup-init.exe]. It will start the installation
in a console and present the above message on success.

After this, you can use the `rustup` command to also install `beta` or `nightly`
channels for Rust and Cargo.

For other installation options and information, visit the
[install][install-rust] page of the Rust website.
