Binary archives are published at https://geth.ethereum.org/downloads/. ## Building the source -For prerequisites and detailed build instructions please read the [Installation Instructions](https://geth.ethereum.org/docs/getting-started/installing-geth). +For prerequisites and detailed build instructions please read the (https://geth.ethereum.org/docs/getting-started/installing-geth). Building `geth` requires both a Go (version 1.19 or later) and a C compiler. You can install them using your favourite package manager. Once the dependencies are installed, run -```shell -make geth -``` - -or, to build the full suite of utilities: - -```shell -make all -``` - ## Executables -The go-ethereum project comes with several wrappers/executables found in the `cmd` -directory. +The ethereum project comes with several wrappers/executables found in the cmd -| Command | Description | -| :--------: | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -| **`geth`** | Our main Ethereum CLI client.

It operates on plain [Ethereum contract ABIs](https://docs.soliditylang.org/en/develop/abi-spec.html) with expanded functionality if the contract bytecode is also available. However, it also accepts Solidity source files, making development much more streamlined. Please see our [Native DApps](https://geth.ethereum.org/docs/developers/dapp-developer/native-bindings) page for details. | | `bootnode` | Stripped down version of our Ethereum client implementation that only takes part in the network node discovery protocol, but does not run any of the higher level application protocols. It can be used as a lightweight bootstrap node to aid in finding peers in private networks. |
