## Quick start
Freqtrade provides a Linux/MacOS script to install all dependencies and help you to configure the bot.
!!! Note
Python3.6 or higher and the corresponding pip are assumed to be available. The install-script will warn and stop if that's not the case.
```bash
git clone git@github.com:freqtrade/freqtrade.git
cd freqtrade
./setup.sh --install
```
!!! Note "Version considerations"
When cloning the repository the default working branch is name `develop`. This branch contains the last features (can be considered as relatively stable thanks to automated tests). The `master` branch contains the code of the last release (done once per month with a one week old snapshot of the `develop` branch to prevent packaging bugs so potentially more stable).
Freqtrade provides the Linux/MacOS Easy Installation script to install all dependencies and help you configure the bot.
!!! Note
Windows installation is explained [here](#windows).
## Easy Installation - Linux Script
The easiest way to install and run Freqtrade is to clone the bot GitHub repository and then run the Easy Installation script, if it's available for your platform.
If you are on Debian, Ubuntu or MacOS freqtrade provides a script to Install, Update, Configure, and Reset your bot.
!!! Note "Version considerations"
When cloning the repository the default working branch has the name `develop`. This branch contains all last features (can be considered as relatively stable, thanks to automated tests). The `master` branch contains the code of the last release (done usually once per month on an approximately one week old snapshot of the `develop` branch to prevent packaging bugs, so potentially it's more stable).
!!! Note
Python3.6 or higher and the corresponding `pip` are assumed to be available. The install-script will warn you and stop if that's not the case. `git` is also needed to clone the Freqtrade repository.
This can be achieved with the following commands:
```bash
git clone git@github.com:freqtrade/freqtrade.git
cd freqtrade
git checkout master # Optional, see (1)
./setup.sh --install
```
(1) This command switches the cloned repository to the use of the `master` branch. It's not needed if you wish to stay on the `develop` branch. You may later switch between branches at any time with the `git checkout master`/`git checkout develop` commands.
