# Installation
Task offers many installation methods. Check out the available methods below.
## Package Managers
<!-- tabs:start -->
#### **Homebrew**
If you're on macOS or Linux and have [Homebrew][homebrew] installed, getting
Task is as simple as running:
```bash
brew install go-task/tap/go-task
```
#### **Snap**
Task is available in [Snapcraft][snapcraft], but keep in mind that your
Linux distribution should allow classic confinement for Snaps to Task work
right:
```bash
sudo snap install task --classic
```
#### **Scoop**
If you're on Windows and have [Scoop][scoop] installed, use `extras` bucket
to install Task like:
```cmd
scoop bucket add extras
scoop install task
```
This installation method is community owned. After a new release of Task, it
may take some time until it's available on Scoop.
#### **AUR**
If you're on Arch Linux you can install Task from
[AUR](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/taskfile-git) using your favorite
package manager such as `yay`, `pacaur` or `yaourt`:
```cmd
yay -S taskfile-git
```
This installation method is community owned, but since it's `-git` version of
the package, it's always latest available version based on the Git repository.

## Get The Binary
<!-- tabs:start -->
#### **Binary**
You can download the binary from the [releases page on GitHub][releases] and
add to your `$PATH`.
DEB and RPM packages are also available.
The `task_checksums.txt` file contains the SHA-256 checksum for each file.
#### **Install Script**
We also have an [install script][installscript] which is very useful in
scenarios like CI. Many thanks to [GoDownloader][godownloader] for enabling the
easy generation of this script.
```bash
# For Default Installation to ./bin with debug logging
sh -c "$(curl --location https://taskfile.dev/install.sh)" -- -d
# For Installation To /usr/local/bin for userwide access with debug logging
# May require sudo sh
sh -c "$(curl --location https://taskfile.dev/install.sh)" -- -d -b /usr/local/bin
```
> This method will download the binary on the local `./bin` directory by default.
#### **GitHub Actions**
If you want to install Task in GitHub Actions you can try using
[this action](https://github.com/arduino/actions/tree/master/setup-taskfile)
by the Arduino team:
```yaml
- name: Install Task
uses: Arduino/actions/setup-taskfile@master
```
This installation method is community owned.
<!-- tabs:end -->
## Build From Source
<!-- tabs:start -->
#### **Go Modules**
First, make sure you have [Go][go] properly installed and setup.
You can easily install the latest release globally by running:
```bash
go install github.com/go-task/task/v3/cmd/task@latest
```
Or you can install into another directory:
```bash
env GOBIN=/bin go install github.com/go-task/task/v3/cmd/task@latest
```
If using Go 1.15 or earlier, instead use:
```bash
env GO111MODULE=on go get -u github.com/go-task/task/v3/cmd/task@latest
```
> For CI environments we recommend using the [Install Script](#get-the-binary)
> instead, which is faster and more stable, since it'll just download the latest
> released binary.
