Automated development builds
======================
The following builds are build automatically by our build servers after each push to the [develop](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/develop) branch.
* [Docker](https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/ethereum/client-go/)
* [OS X](http://build.ethdev.com/builds/OSX%20Go%20develop%20branch/Mist-OSX-latest.dmg)
* Ubuntu
[trusty](https://build.ethdev.com/builds/Linux%20Go%20develop%20deb%20i386-trusty/latest/) |
[utopic](https://build.ethdev.com/builds/Linux%20Go%20develop%20deb%20i386-utopic/latest/)
* [Windows 64-bit](https://build.ethdev.com/builds/Windows%20Go%20develop%20branch/Geth-Win64-latest.zip)
* [ARM](https://build.ethdev.com/builds/ARM%20Go%20develop%20branch/geth-ARM-latest.tar.bz2)
Building the source
===================
For prerequisites and detailed build instructions please read the
[Installation Instructions](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki/Building-Ethereum)
on the wiki.
Building geth requires two external dependencies, Go and GMP.
You can install them using your favourite package manager.
Once the dependencies are installed, run
make geth
Executables
===========
Go Ethereum comes with several wrappers/executables found in
[the `cmd` directory](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/develop/cmd):
* `geth` Ethereum CLI (ethereum command line interface client)
* `bootnode` runs a bootstrap node for the Discovery Protocol
* `ethtest` test tool which runs with the [tests](https://github.com/ethereum/tests) suite:
`/path/to/test.json > ethtest --test BlockTests --stdin`.
* `evm` is a generic Ethereum Virtual Machine: `evm -code 60ff60ff -gas
10000 -price 0 -dump`. See `-h` for a detailed description.
* `disasm` disassembles EVM code: `echo "6001" | disasm`
* `rlpdump` prints RLP structures
Command line options
====================
`geth` can be configured via command line options, environment variables and config files.
To get the options available:
geth --help
For further details on options, see the [wiki](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki/Command-Line-Options)
Contribution
============
If you'd like to contribute to go-ethereum please fork, fix, commit and
send a pull request. Commits who do not comply with the coding standards
are ignored (use gofmt!). If you send pull requests make absolute sure that you
commit on the `develop` branch and that you do not merge to master.
Commits that are directly based on master are simply ignored.
See [Developers' Guide](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki/Developers'-Guide)
for more details on configuring your environment, testing, and
dependency management.
