< p > You can install xplr using one of the following ways. Each has their own
advantages and limitations.< / p >
< p > For example, the < a href = "#direct-download" > Direct Download< / a > ,

< a href = "#build-from-source" > Build From Source< / a > methods allow the users to install the
latest possible version of xplr, but they have one common drawback - the user
will need to keep an eye on the releases, and manually upgrade xplr when a new
