The pattern of downloading and executing installation scripts without verifying them has bothered me for a while. I started messing around with a way to verify the checksum of scripts before I execute them. I’ve found it a really useful tool for installing things like Rust or Deno. It’s written entirely as a shell script, and it’s easy to read and understand what’s happening. I hope it may be useful to someone else!
