# Installation

> Install the Elding CLI and sign in.

```bash theme={null}
npm install -g @elding/cli
```

<Warning>
  Always use the **scoped** name `@elding/cli`. `npm install -g elding` (without the
  `@elding/` scope) installs an **unrelated** third-party package, not Elding.
</Warning>

Then sign in through your browser:

```bash theme={null}
elding login
```

The token is stored in your operating system's credential store: Keychain on macOS,
Credential Manager on Windows, or Secret Service on Linux. It is never stored as plaintext
on disk.
