# Installation

# Linux

For Linux, we recommend installing the Unikube CLI via pip.

# 1. Install pip

If you haven't already set up pip, please follow their installation instructions (opens new window).

# 2. Install Unikube CLI

pip install unikube

To install the latest pre-release use the --pre flag:

pip install --upgrade unikube --pre

The Unikube cli is developed for and tested with Python 3.8 and 3.9.

Note

Python 2 is not supported. Therefore, depending on your local python installation, you may need to use pip3.

# Mac

For Mac, we recommend installing the Unikube CLI via Homebrew. However, you can also use pip as described below:

# Windows

# Installation from Source

You can download the source code as zip or tar archive from the Github release page (opens new window).
