# Installation
## Pre-requisites
### Install [`jq`](https://stedolan.github.io/jq)
On Mac `brew install jq` or download the official binaries on the project [website](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/download/).
## Install Binaries
### GitHub
Clone and build Ethermint using `git`:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/tharsis/ethermint.git
cd ethermint
make install
```
Check that the binaries have been successfully installed:
```bash
ethermintd version
```
## Docker
You can build Ethermint using Docker by running:
```bash
make docker-build
```
This will install the binaries on the `./build` directory. Now, check that the binaries have been
successfully installed:
```bash
ethermintd version
```
## Releases
::: warning
Ethermint is under VERY ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT and should be treated as pre-alpha software. This means it is not meant to be run in production, its APIs are subject to change without warning and should not be relied upon, and it should not be used to hold any value. We will remove this warning when we have a release that is stable, secure, and properly tested.
:::
You can also download a specific release available on the Ethermint [repository](https://github.com/tharsis/ethermint/releases) or via command line:
```bash
go install github.com/tharsis/ethermint@latest
```
