03. SaltStack installation

I am using Ubuntu 16.04.

Nitrogen Salt release should be available on pypi by July 2017.
At that time you will be able to install Nitrogen using

# pip install salt

Meanwhile, you can install Nitrogen from the salt github repository (https://github.com/saltstack/salt) using the git branch 2017.7:

# pip install git+https://github.com/saltstack/[email protected]

# salt --version
salt 2017.7.0-202-g3c8dee0 (Nitrogen)
