title: Building from Source
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
You can either build a release from source or download a pre-built release. If you do not plan on developing Kubernetes itself, we suggest using a pre-built version of the current release, which can be found in the [Release Notes](/docs/imported/release/notes/).
|
|
|
|
The Kubernetes source code can be downloaded from the [kubernetes/kubernetes](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes) repo.

## Building from 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 kubernetes/kubernetes [`build`](http://releases.k8s.io/{{< param "githubbranch" >}}/build/) directory.
