Get Help

We're huge believers the product is only as good as the community that supports it. We're here to help you get the most out of Spin.

Ensure you're on the latest version

We're always shipping new features and bug fixes for Spin. Ensure you're on the latest release by checking the releases page.

You can also run spin update to ensure you're on the latest version.

If you're still having issues, sometimes deleting Spin and reinstalling might be a quick fix because it's so easy to delete and reinstall.

Debugging

If you think you've found a bug in Spin, you can get debug logs by setting the SPIN_DEBUG environment variable to true before running any commands.

Set SPIN_DEBUG to true

SPIN_DEBUG=true spin version

This will show you exactly what Spin is running and these debug logs can help the community help you faster.

Going back to the stable release

Going back to the stable release is as easy as deleting the ~/.spin directory then following the installation instructions to reinstall Spin.

Delete Spin and reinstall

rm -rf ~/.spin

Now follow the installation instructions for your operating system:

Community Support

If you're still having issues, our community primarily uses GitHub Discussions and Discord to get help with Spin.
