DuckDB Preview (Nightly) Installation

The preview (nightly) builds provide the latest development version of DuckDB. As such, they are constantly in flux and they are less suitable for production use than the stable releases of DuckDB. You should only use these releases if you are looking for recent bugfixes or optimizations.
