There are a few ways to install Coder: [install script](./docs/install.md#installsh) (macOS, Linux), [docker-compose](./docs/install.md#docker-compose), or [manually](./docs/install.md#manual) via the latest release (macOS, Windows, and Linux).

This article walks you through the various ways of installing and deploying Coder.
44

5+
## install.sh
6+
7+
The easiest way to install Coder is to use our [install script](https://github.com/coder/coder/main/install.sh) for Linux and macOS. The install script
8+
attempts to use the system package manager detection-reference if possible.
9+
10+
You can preview what occurs during the install process:
11+
12+
```bash
13+
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --dry-run
14+
```
15+
16+
To install, run:
17+
18+
```bash
19+
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh
20+
```
21+
22+
> If you're concerned about the install script's use of `curl | sh` and the
23+
> security implications, please see [this blog
24+
> post](https://sandstorm.io/news/2015-09-24-is-curl-bash-insecure-pgp-verified-install)
25+
> by [sandstorm.io](https://sandstorm.io).
26+
27+
You can modify the installation process by including flags. Run the help command for reference:
28+
29+
```bash
30+
curl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh -s -- --help
31+
```
32+
33+
## System packages
34+
35+
Coder publishes the following system packages [in GitHub releases](https://github.com/coder/coder/releases):
36+
37+
- .deb (Debian, Ubuntu)
38+
- .rpm (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, SUSE)
39+
- .apk (Alpine)
40+
41+
Once installed, you can run Coder as a system service:
42+
43+
```sh
44+
# Specify a PostgreSQL database
45+
# in the configuration first:
46+
sudo vim /etc/coder.d/coder.env
47+
sudo service coder restart
48+
```
