| 3 | +A single CLI (`coder`) is used for both the Coder server and the client. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +We support two release channels: mainline and stable - read the |
| 6 | +[Releases](./releases.md) page to learn more about which best suits your team. |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +There are several ways to install Coder. For production deployments with 50+ |
| 9 | +users, we recommend [installing on Kubernetes](./kubernetes.md). Otherwise, you |
| 10 | +can install Coder on your local machine or on a VM: |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | +<div class="tabs"> |

| 14 | +## Linux/macOS |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Our install script is the fastest way to install Coder on Linux/macOS: |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +```sh |
| 19 | +curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh |
| 20 | +``` |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +Refer to [GitHub releases](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases) for |
| 23 | +alternate installation methods (e.g. standalone binaries, system packages). |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +## Windows |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +> **Important:** If you plan to use the built-in PostgreSQL database, you will |
| 28 | +> need to ensure that the |
| 29 | +> [Visual C++ Runtime](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist#latest-microsoft-visual-c-redistributable-version) |
| 30 | +> is installed. |
| 31 | +
|
| 32 | +Use [GitHub releases](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases) to download the |
| 33 | +Windows installer (`.msi`) or standalone binary (`.exe`). |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +Alternatively, you can use the |
| 38 | +[`winget`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/package-manager/winget/#use-winget) |
| 39 | +package manager to install Coder: |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | +```powershell |
| 42 | +winget install Coder.Coder |
| 43 | +``` |

| 54 | +coder server |
| 55 | +``` |
| 56 | + |

| 58 | + |
| 59 | +To log in to an existing Coder deployment: |
| 60 | + |
