This is a fresh Ubuntu in a docker. Before the video, I only did apt update and installed wget, git (and asciinema). Then I just copied in the instructions from Rye’s github readme.md. First I installed Go, then I git cloned Rye repository, then ran a script that get’s required go modules for the tiny_build, then I ran go build and got a Rye binary.

  <script src="asciinema-player.min.js"></script>
  <script>
    AsciinemaPlayer.create(
      '/assets/585594.cast',
      document.getElementById('player'),
      { cols: 271, rows: 64 }
    );
  </script>

While this site doesn't offer GIF conversion at the moment, you can still do it yourself with the help of asciinema GIF generator utility - agg.

Once you have it installed run the following command to create GIF file:

agg https://asciinema.org/a/585594 585594.gif

Or, if you already downloaded the recording file:

agg 585594.cast 585594.gif

Check agg --help for all available options. You can change font family and size, select color theme, adjust speed and more.

See agg manual for full usage instructions.
