# DCli Install ## install The install command MUST be run after you activate dcli to complete the dcli install. ```dart dart pub global activate dcli dcli install ``` The dcli install command creates the \~/.dcli directory, expands the dcli templates and adds \~/.dcli/bin to your path. You will need to restart your terminal after the install completes for your paths to update correctly. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
