- On Ubuntu/Debian Linux: `sudo apt install netcat`.
- On Fedora Linux: `sudo dnf install nmap-ncat`.
- On macOS: `brew install netcat`.
- On Windows:
- Netcat is integrated with [NMap](https://nmap.org/download#windows)
- Download and run the latest stable release self-installer
- Ensure Nmap Core files, Register Nmap Path, Npcap and Ncat are selected from the list of options
- When prompted, accept and install Npcap

Note that the installed program might be called `nc` or `ncat`, depending on your operating system and package manager (short for netcat). The extension will try to find either of them in your system PATH.
