This installs carbon-explorer locally for experimental use on Mac/Linux. It's
not recommended for most users. Bear in mind that Carbon Language is
**experimental** and still has no compiler. See
[our project status](/README.md#project-status) for more information.
To install to /usr, run:
```shell
bazel run -c opt //installers/local:install
```
To use a custom install path, run:
```shell
bazel run -c opt //installers/local:install \
--//installers/local:install_path=/my/path
```
To uninstall, run:
```shell
bazel run //installers/local:uninstall
```
The build mode is important for installs, as debug versions may be installed. It
is not relevant for uninstalls.
If a custom install path is passed to :install, the same should be passed to
:uninstall.
Note this is just scripting paths: it's not intended to be a full-fledged
install.
