You can either build a release from sources or download a pre-built release. If you do not plan on developing Kubernetes itself, we suggest a pre-built release.
|
|
|
|
### Prebuilt Binary Release
|
|
|
|
The list of binary releases is available for download from the [GitHub Kubernetes repo release page](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/releases).
|
|
|
|
Download the latest release and unpack this tar file on Linux or OS X, cd to the created `kubernetes/` directory, and then follow the getting started guide for your cloud.
|
|
|
|
### Building from source
|
|
|
|
Get the Kubernetes source. If you are simply building a release from source there is no need to set up a full golang environment as all building happens in a Docker container.
|
|
|
|
Building a release is simple.
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes.git
|
|
cd kubernetes
|
|
make release
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For more details on the release process see the [`build/` directory](http://releases.k8s.io/{{page.githubbranch}}/build/)
