## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
On win32, we make an executable [installer][] available. On other
|
||||
platforms you need to build from a [tarball][].
|
||||
|
||||
If you're on windows, download and run the installer. It should install
|
||||
a self-contained set of tools and libraries to `C:\Program Files\Rust`,
|
||||
and add `C:\Program Files\Rust\bin` to your `PATH` environment variable.
|
||||
You should then be able to run the rust compiler as `rustc` directly
|
||||
from the command line.
|
||||
|
||||
On Windows Rust additionally requires [MinGW][mingw] (version
|
||||
20110802 is known to work). It is currently recommended that windows
|
||||
development be done under the MinGW shell to ensure that the
|
||||
environment is configured correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
We hope to be distributing binary packages for various other operating
|
||||
systems at some point in the future, but at the moment only windows
|
||||
binary installers are being made. Other operating systems must build
|
||||
from "source".
|
||||
The Rust compiler currently must be built from a [tarball][]. We hope
|
||||
to be distributing binary packages for various operating systems in
|
||||
the future.
|
||||
|
||||
***Note:*** The Rust compiler is slightly unusual in that it is written
|
||||
in Rust and therefore must be built by a precompiled "snapshot" version
