Choose the install path that matches how hands-on you want to be. Full is best for most people. Lite keeps more of the underlying toolchain boundary explicit. WinGet is convenient, but GitHub Releases is still the direct route to the newest build.
Best for convenience and updates. Good option, but do not treat it as the most authoritative or fastest path to the newest release.

Verify before first run
Keep the file path explicit. Download from GitHub Releases, open SHA256SUMS.txt from the same release, and then decide how to handle any SmartScreen warning.
1
Download from the Full or Lite release asset, or open the GitHub Release page directly.
2
Open SHA256SUMS.txt and verify SHA256 before first run.
3
If SmartScreen warns, verify source plus checksum before continuing.
