# Installation

## Download pre-builts binaries (recommended)

You can download ready-to-use packages including binaries for OS X, Linux and
Windows in various formats of the
[latest release](https://github.com/tus/tusd/releases/latest).

## Compile from source

The only requirement for building tusd is [Go](http://golang.org/doc/install).
Currently only Go 1.12 and 1.13 is tested and supported and in the future only the two latest
major releases will be supported.
If you meet this criteria, you can clone the git repository, install the remaining
dependencies and build the binary:

```bash
git clone git@github.com:tus/tusd.git
cd tusd

go build -o tusd cmd/tusd/main.go
```
