+#### One-Off
+If you don't want to install Scanline directly on your system, or don't feel like rebuilding it, you can run the software in a "one-off" way, with the following command:
+```sh
+nix run "github:0SkillAllLuck/Scanline"#scanline
+```
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> This command requires the `nix-command` nix experimental feature[^1]. You probably enabled it at the same time you did `flakes`.
