Note ❗

Options

• --no-parallel - Disable parallel mode for applications installation.
• -p --parallel-count <parallelCount> - Set the number of parallel application installations. The default is based on the number of CPU cores.

Profiles

You can set predefined selected applications by using the profiles feature. Simply select the relevant profiles you'd like to have, and press Enter to preselect relevant applications.

Some profiles have dependencies, such as node-engineering profile, which is dependent on the engineering profile.
You can select both, but under the hood, the engineering profile will be selected automatically.
