For Linux there is an easy installation method, just run this in your terminal:
2013-07-27 07:01:12 -04:00
2014-10-31 09:43:15 -04:00
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mc-server/MCServer/master/easyinstall.sh | sh

For Windows, you just need to download a file and extract it:
- [Windows 32 bit ](http://builds.cuberite.org/job/MCServer%20Windows%20x86/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/Install/MCServer.zip )
- [Windows 64 bit ](http://builds.cuberite.org/job/MCServer%20Windows%20x64/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/Install/MCServer.zip )
For other operating systems you need to download and compile yourself. There is also an archive of binary builds on the buildserver: http://builds.cuberite.org
Compiling the server yourself has other benefits: you may get better performance performance (1.5-3x as fast) and it supports more operating systems. See the [COMPILING.md ](https://github.com/mc-server/MCServer/blob/master/COMPILING.md ) file for more details.
