Getting Started ​

To get started with Clash, you can either build it from source or download pre-built binaries.

Using pre-built binaries ​

You can download Clash core binaries here: https://downloads.clash.wiki/ClashPremium

Install from source ​

You can build Clash on your own device with Golang 1.19+:

shell
$ go install github.com/Dreamacro/clash@latest
go: downloading github.com/Dreamacro/clash v1.15.1

The binary is built under $GOPATH/bin:

shell
$ $GOPATH/bin/clash -v
Clash unknown version darwin arm64 with go1.20.3 unknown time

Build for a different arch/os ​

Golang supports cross-compilation, so you can build for a device on a different architecture or operating system. You can use make to build them easily - for example:

shell
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Dreamacro/clash
