* the types of installation available
* installation methods and command lines to adapt for each installation type.
Find the appropriate build to install in the [Releases](https://github.com/ytdl-org/ytdl-nightly/releases) page here, rather than the URLs mentioned in the main instructions. Replace the download URL in the appropriate command line shown in the main instructions with the URL from the Releases page.
