title: Installation instructions for Mac

## Installing with Homebrew
By far the easiest way to install go-ethereum is to use our
Homebrew tap. If you don't have Homebrew, [install it first](http://brew.sh).
Then run the following commands to add the tap and install `geth`:
```shell
brew tap ethereum/ethereum
brew install ethereum
```
You can install the develop branch by running `--devel`:
```shell
brew install ethereum --devel
```
After installing, run `geth account new` to create an account on your node.
You should now be able to run `geth` and connect to the network.
Make sure to check the different options and commands with `geth --help`
For options and patches, see: https://github.com/ethereum/homebrew-ethereum
## Building from source
### Building Geth (command line client)
Clone the repository to a directory of your choosing:
```shell
git clone https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum
```
Building `geth` requires the Go compiler:
```shell
brew install go
```
Finally, build the `geth` program using the following command.
```shell
cd go-ethereum
make geth
```
If you see some errors related to header files of Mac OS system library, install XCode Command Line Tools, and try again.
```shell
xcode-select --install
```
You can now run `build/bin/geth` to start your node.
