## Installing a pre-built package on Windows
Windows 10 or later is required to run WezTerm.
<a href="{{ windows_stable }}" class="btn">Download for Windows</a>
<a href="{{ windows_pre }}" class="btn">Nightly for Windows</a>
1. Download <a href="{{ windows_stable }}">Release</a>
2. Extract the zipfile and double-click `wezterm.exe` to run the UI
3. Configuration instructions can be [found here](configuration.html)
## Installing a pre-built package on macOS
The CI system builds the package on macOS Mojave (10.14). It may run on earlier
versions of macOS, but that has not been tested.
<a href="{{ macos_stable }}" class="btn">Download for macOS</a>
<a href="{{ macos_pre }}" class="btn">Nightly for macOS</a>
1. Download <a href="{{ macos_stable }}">Release</a>
2. Extract the zipfile and drag the `WezTerm.app` bundle to your `Applications` folder
3. First time around, you may need to right click and select `Open` to allow launching
the application that your just downloaded from the internet.
3. Subsequently, a simple double-click will launch the UI
4. Configuration instructions can be [found here](configuration.html)
## Installing a pre-built package on Ubuntu
The CI system builds a `.deb` file on Ubuntu 16.04. It is compatible with other
debian style systems, including Debian 9 (Stretch) and later versions.
<a href="{{ deb_stable }}" class="btn">Download for Ubuntu</a>
<a href="{{ deb_pre }}" class="btn">Nightly for Ubuntu</a>
* <tt>curl -LO <a href="{{ deb_stable }}">{{ deb_stable }}</a></tt>
* `sudo apt install -y ./{{ deb_stable_asset }}`
* The package installs `/usr/bin/wezterm` and `/usr/share/applications/wezterm.desktop`
* Configuration instructions can be [found here](configuration.html)
## Installing a pre-built package on Fedora
The CI system builds an `.rpm` file on Fedora 31.
<a href="{{ fedora_stable }}" class="btn">Download for Fedora</a>
<a href="{{ fedora_pre }}" class="btn">{Nightly for Fedora</a>
* <tt>curl -LO <a href="{{ fedora_stable }}">{{ fedora_stable }}</a></tt>
* `sudo dnf install -y ./{{ fedora_stable_asset }}`
* The package installs `/usr/bin/wezterm` and `/usr/share/applications/wezterm.desktop`
* Configuration instructions can be [found here](configuration.html)
## Installing from source
* Install `rustup` to get the `rust` compiler installed on your system.
[Install rustup](https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/install.html)
* Rust version 1.39 or later is required
* Build in release mode: `cargo build --release`
* Run it via either `cargo run --release` or `target/release/wezterm`
You will need a collection of support libraries; the [`get-deps`](https://github.com/wez/wezterm/blob/master/get-deps) script will
attempt to install them for you. If it doesn't know about your system,
[please contribute instructions!](https://github.com/wez/wezterm/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
```
$ curl https://sh.rustup.rs -sSf | sh -s
$ git clone --depth=1 --branch=master --recursive https://github.com/wez/wezterm.git
$ cd wezterm
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
$ sudo ./get-deps
$ cargo build --release
$ cargo run --release -- start
```
