Release v0.7.1

David Cruz · March 15, 2026

Upgrade to the latest version with lpm upgrade!

Registry dependencies in lpm install and lpx

lpm install and lpx / lpm x now support registry dependencies. You can run a package from the registry directly without adding it to a project first:

lpm install hood
lpx hood

Previously only git dependencies were supported in these commands.

--nightly flag for install scripts

The install scripts now accept a --nightly flag to install the latest nightly build of lpm instead of the latest stable release:

# Linux
curl -fsSL https://lualpm.com/install | sh -s -- --nightly

# Windows
irm https://lualpm.com/install.ps1 | iex -Args --nightly

Nightly builds reflect the latest commits and may be unstable. Use lpm upgrade (without --nightly) to switch back to a stable release.

macOS support

Aarch64 macOS is now officially supported and passes the full test suite. Intel macOS support is coming soon.

To install on Apple Silicon:

curl -fsSL https://lualpm.com/install | sh
