# Installing Nomad
-Installing Nomad is simple. There are two approaches to installing Nomad:
+Nomad is available as a pre-compiled binary or as a package for several
+operating systems. You can also [build Nomad from source](#from-source).
-1. Using a [precompiled binary](#precompiled-binaries)
-1. Installing [from source](#from-source)
+-> If you are interested in trialing Nomad without installing it locally, see the
+[Quickstart](/docs/install/quickstart) for options to get started with Nomad.
-Downloading a precompiled binary is easiest, and we provide downloads over
-TLS along with SHA-256 sums to verify the binary.
+
+
-## Precompiled Binaries ((#precompiled-binaries))
+You can download a [precompiled binary](https://nomadproject.io/downloads/) and
+run it on your machine locally. You can also verify the binary using the
+available SHA-256 sums. After downloading Nomad, unzip the package. Make sure
+that the `nomad` binary is available on your `PATH` before continuing with the
+other guides.
-To install the precompiled binary,
-[download](/downloads) the appropriate package for your system.
-Nomad is currently packaged as a zip file. We do not have any near term
-plans to provide system packages.
+You can check the locations available on your path by running this command.
-Once the zip is downloaded, unzip it into any directory. The
-`nomad` (or `nomad.exe` for Windows) binary inside is all that is
-necessary to run Nomad. Any additional files, if any, are not
-required to run Nomad.
+```shell-session
+$ echo $PATH
-Copy the binary to anywhere on your system. If you intend to access it
-from the command-line, make sure to place it somewhere on your `PATH`.
+/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
+```
+
+The output is a list of locations separated by colons. You can make Nomad
+available by moving the binary to one of the listed locations, or by adding
+Nomad's location to your `PATH`.
+
+-> **Tip (Linux-based or Mac):** Permanently add a new location to your path by
+editing your shell's settings file (usually called something like `~/.bashrc`,
+where the part of the file name after the `.` and before `rc` is the name of
+your shell). In that file you will see a line that starts with `export PATH=`,
+followed by a colon-separated list of locations. Add the location of the Consul
+binary to that list and save the file. Then reload your shell's configuration
+with the command `source ~/.bashrc`, replacing `bash` with the name of your
+shell.
+
+-> **Tip (Windows):** Add a location to your path via the GUI by navigating to
+`Environment Variables` in your system settings, and looking for the variable
+called `PATH`. You will see a semicolon-separated list of locations. Add the
+Nomad binary's location to that list and then launch a new console window.

+HashiCorp officially maintains and signs packages for the following Linux
+distributions.

+HashiCorp. The latest version of Nomad is always available by manual
+installation.
+
+~> **NOTE**: On macOS, machines without a Java environment installed will be
+prompted to install Java because of a [known issue—#7865][gh-7865]. The linked
+GitHub issue has workarounds for this issue.
+
+
+
+
+[Chocolatey](https://chocolatey.org/) is a free and open-source package

+## Run Nomad in Vagrant
+
+Alternatively, you can use a Vagrant to set up a development environment for Nomad.
+Vagrant is a tool for building and managing virtual machine environments.
+
+-> **Note**: To use the Vagrant environment, first install Vagrant following
+these [instructions](https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/installation/). You will
+also need a virtualization tool, such as [VirtualBox][].
+
+You can download a Vagrantfile which will start a small Nomad cluster. First
+create a new directory for your Vagrant environment.
+
+```shell-session
+$ mkdir nomad-vagrant
+```
+
+Change into the directory you made with the previous command.
+
+```shell-session
+$ cd nomad-vagrant
+```
+
+Now you can get the Nomad installation configuration.
+
+```shell-session
+$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hashicorp/nomad/master/demo/vagrant/Vagrantfile
+```
+
+Now that you have created a new directory and downloaded the `Vagrantfile`
+you must create the virtual machine with the `vagrant up` command.
+
+```shell-session
+$ vagrant up
+```
+
+This will take a few minutes as the base Ubuntu box must be downloaded
+and provisioned with both Docker and Nomad. Once this completes, you should
+see this output.
+
+```plaintext
+Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
+==> default: Importing base box 'bento/ubuntu-18.04'...
+...
+==> default: Running provisioner: docker...
+```
+
+At this point the Vagrant box is running and ready to go.
