`mim` is distributed as a static binary for x86 Linux, Linux ARM, and Apple Silicon macOS. The installer in [Installing `mim`](https://morloc-project.github.io/docs/getting-started/installing.md#installing-mim) fetches it; the binaries themselves are on the [morloc-manager releases page](https://github.com/morloc-project/morloc-manager/releases). Each Morloc release is a version `mim` can provision into an environment, and this chapter covers the commands that create, pin, customize, and deploy those environments. The full `mim` reference is [`mim` (Morloc Installation Manager)](https://morloc-project.github.io/docs/utilities/mim.md).
