haxelib: Install a Haxe library.
$ haxelib install ${libname}
try on your machine

The command "haxelib install ${libname}" is used to install a library (a package or module) within the Haxe programming language environment.

Here's how each part of the command works:

  • "haxelib" refers to the Haxe library manager, which is a tool used to manage and install libraries.
  • "install" is the command for installing a library.
  • "${libname}" is a placeholder or variable that should be replaced with the actual name of the library you want to install. The "${...}" syntax is commonly used in command-line interfaces to represent variables or placeholders that users need to manually input.

For example, if you want to install a library called "awesome-lib", you would replace "${libname}" with "awesome-lib" and the command would become "haxelib install awesome-lib". The Haxelib tool will then fetch and install the specified library, making it available for use in your Haxe projects.
