Install instructions no longer helpful

[BattleRabbit]

go get -u github.com/fogleman/primitive no longer works and I'm getting "-u provided but not defined" error when using the new go install. Please help :)

Nevermind, I just removed -u and successfully installed primitive. The install instructions should probably include that you have to add your own input.png in the C:/Users/USERNAME/go/bin/ directory for N00bs like me.

Noob here also and I had the same trouble. Except in my case the installer didn't modify my PATH and I had to do it manually. Definitely room for improved install process for us noobs.

OS:

Linux Ubuntu 22.04.4

First:

go install github.com/fogleman/primitive@latest

After:

export PATH=$PATH:$(go env GOPATH)/bin

Then

primitive -i input.jpg -o output.svg -n 100

Also how to apply blur on generated SVG.

can you by any chance provide the code to compile this using github actions? that would be really helpful
