## Install Tryton

There are three easy options to install Tryton:

> - Install the version provided by your operating system distribution. This is the quickest and recommended option for those who has operating system that distributes Tryton.

> - Install an official release. Once you’ve downloaded and unpacked a trytond source release, enter the directory where the archive was unpacked, and run: `python setup.py install`

>   For advanced options, please refer to the easy_install and/or the distutils documentation:

> - Without installation, just run `bin/trytond` from where the archive was unpacked.

Warning

Note that you may need administrator/root privileges for this step, as this command will by default attempt to install trytond to the Python site-packages directory on your system.
