Installing sbt 

To create an sbt project, you’ll need to take these steps:

• Install sbt and create a script to launch it.

• Setup a simple hello world project

  • Create a project directory with source files in it.
  • Create your build definition.
• Move on to running to learn how to run sbt.
• Then move on to .sbt build definition to learn more about build definitions.

Ultimately, the installation of sbt boils down to a launcher JAR and a shell script, but depending on your platform, we provide several ways to make the process less tedious. Head over to the installation steps for Mac, Windows, Linux, or manual installation.
