# Install Tuist {#install-tuist}

Tuist runs on **macOS** and **Linux**. Although you could manually build Tuist from [the sources](https://github.com/tuist/tuist), **we recommend using one of the following installation methods to ensure a valid installation.**

### <a href="https://github.com/jdx/mise">Mise</a> {#recommended-mise}

::: info
<!-- -->
If you don't have Mise installed, follow the [getting started guide](https://mise.jdx.dev/getting-started.html) first. Mise is a recommended alternative to [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) if you are a team or organization that needs to ensure deterministic versions of tools across different environments.
<!-- -->
:::

Unlike tools like Homebrew, which install and activate a single version of the tool globally, **Mise pins a version** either globally or scoped to a project. Run `mise use` to install and activate Tuist:

```bash
mise use tuist@x.y.z          # Install and pin tuist-x.y.z in the current project
mise use tuist@latest          # Install and pin the latest tuist in the current project
mise use -g tuist@x.y.z       # Install and pin tuist-x.y.z as the global default
mise use -g tuist@system       # Use the system's tuist as the global default
```

If you clone a project that already has a Tuist version pinned in `mise.toml`, run `mise install` to install it.

::: details Linux support
On Linux, Tuist is available exclusively via Mise. Commands that depend on Xcode (such as `tuist generate`) are not available on Linux, but platform-independent commands like `tuist inspect bundle` work as expected.

### <a href="https://brew.sh">Homebrew</a> (macOS only) {#recommended-homebrew}

You can install Tuist using [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) and [our formulas](https://github.com/tuist/homebrew-tuist):

```bash
brew tap tuist/tuist
brew install --formula tuist
brew install --formula tuist@x.y.z
```

::: tip VERIFYING THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE BINARIES
<!-- -->
You can verify that your installation's binaries have been built by us by running the following command, which checks if the certificate's team is `U6LC622NKF`:

```bash
curl -fsSL "https://docs.tuist.dev/verify.sh" | bash
```
