# Installation
## Supported Platforms
- Windows 10/11 AMD64/ARM64
- MacOS 10.13+ AMD64
- MacOS 11.0+ ARM64
- Linux AMD64/ARM64
## Dependencies
Wails has a number of common dependencies that are required before installation:
- Go 1.18+
- NPM (Node 15+)
### Go
Download Go from the [Go Downloads Page](https://go.dev/doc/install).
Ensure that you follow the official [Go installation instructions](https://go.dev/doc/install). You will also need to ensure that your `PATH` environment variable also includes the path to your `~/go/bin` directory. Restart your terminal and do the following checks:
- Check Go is installed correctly: `go version`
- Check "~/go/bin" is in your PATH variable: `echo $PATH | grep go/bin`
### NPM
Download NPM from the [Node Downloads Page](https://nodejs.org/en/download/). It is best to use the latest release as that is what we generally test against.
Run `npm --version` to verify.
## Platform Specific Dependencies
You will also need to install platform specific dependencies:
```mdx-code-block
import Tabs from "@theme/Tabs";
import TabItem from "@theme/TabItem";
<Tabs
defaultValue="Windows"
values={[
{ label: "Windows", value: "Windows" },
{ label: "MacOS", value: "MacOS" },
{ label: "Linux", value: "Linux" },
]}
>
<TabItem value="MacOS">
Wails requires that the xcode command line tools are installed. This can be
done by running <code>xcode-select --install</code>.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="Windows">
Wails requires that the <a href="https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/">WebView2</a> runtime is installed. Some Windows installations will already have this installed. You can check using the <code>wails doctor</code> command.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value={"Linux"}>
Linux required the standard <code>gcc</code> build tools plus <code>libgtk3</code> and <code>libwebkit</code>. Rather than list a ton of commands for different distros, Wails can try to determine what the installation commands are for your specific distribution. Run <code>wails doctor</code> after installation to be shown how to install the dependencies. If your distro/package manager is not supported, please consult the <a href={"/docs/guides/linux-distro-support"}>Add Linux Distro</a> guide.
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
```
## Optional Dependencies
- [UPX](https://upx.github.io/) for compressing your applications.
## Installing Wails
Run `go install github.com/wailsapp/wails/v2/cmd/wails@latest` to install the Wails CLI.
## System Check
Running `wails doctor` will check if you have the correct dependencies installed. If not, it will advise on what is missing and help on how to rectify any problems.
## The `wails` command appears to be missing?
If your system is reporting that the `wails` command is missing, make sure you have followed the Go installation guide
correctly. Normally, it means that the `go/bin` directory in your User's home directory is not in the `PATH` environment
variable. You will also normally need to close and reopen any open command prompts so that changes to the environment
made by the installer are reflected at the command prompt.
