## :scissors: What's Cut-It?

Cut-It is the best evidence procurement tool for speech and debate. It combines a myriad of tools to allow you to save time on busy work and focus on your research. For more information, visit our [website](http://cutit.cards).

## :desktop: How do I get it?

There are two options:

1. Go to our [website ](http://cutit.cards)and download the appropriate version for your device **(easiest & fastest - recommended)**
2. Go to our [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/http-samc/cut-it/releases/) page and download a custom version

   * This is not recommended for regular users, as you may be installing an incomplete/unsupported version
   * We notate our public releases with the `@Release` tag and our beta releases with the `@Beta` tag
   * If you're using a Windows Device, look for a file in the Release Assets called `dist-win`
   * If you're using a Mac, look for a file in the Release Assets called `dist-mac`
