### b1. with hledger-install
The latest version of our [hledger-install script](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/tree/master/hledger-install)
([changes](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/commits/master/hledger-install/hledger-install.sh))
is recommended as the easiest and most-likely-to-just-work build method,
on at least GNU/linux and mac (it requires /bin/bash):
On systems with bash installed (mac, linux, unix-like windows..),
if you don't already have stack or cabal, or if you are having trouble with them,
[hledger-install](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/tree/master/hledger-install)
is an easy and reliable way to get the latest hledger.
It automates the install process using stack or cabal, avoiding common pitfalls.
- it requires only bash and curl/wget, and internet access
- it automates the install process using stack or cabal, avoiding common pitfalls
- it installs stack and GHC in ~/.stack, if needed
- it installs the latest release of hledger and addon tools in ~/.local/bin or ~/.cabal/bin
Here's the quick, non-secure way to run it:
**`curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simonmichael/hledger/master/hledger-install/hledger-install.sh | bash`**
And here's the more responsible way:
**`curl -sO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simonmichael/hledger/master/hledger-install/hledger-install.sh`**\
**`less hledger-install.sh`** *# do security review*\
**`curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simonmichael/hledger/master/hledger-install/hledger-install.sh > hledger-install.sh`**\
**`less hledger-install.sh`** *# satisfy yourself that the script is safe*\
**`bash hledger-install.sh`**

### b2. with stack
[`stack`](http://haskell-lang.org/get-started) is the newer and easier of the Haskell build tools.
If you prefer more control or if hledger-install failed, here's how to use stack yourself:
1. **Install or upgrade to the latest stack**\
The latest version of stack (1.7.1) is recommended, for best avoidance of ecosystem breakages.
If an older version fails to install hledger, you should install the latest release of stack and try again.
If you can get at least stack 1.3 installed, eg from your system packages, you can usually run `stack upgrade` to quickly upgrade it to the latest.
[`stack`](http://haskell-lang.org/get-started) is the more reliable of the two Haskell build tools for new users.
Here's how to use it directly:
- Use stack 1.7.1 or newer. The latest release is best.
On Windows, the 64-bit version of stack is [preferred](https://github.com/simonmichael/hledger/issues/275#issuecomment-123834252).
2. **`stack install --resolver=lts-12 cassava-megaparsec-1.0.0 hledger-lib-1.11 hledger-1.11 hledger-ui-1.11 hledger-web-1.11 hledger-api-1.11`**\
This installs the main hledger packages (and dependencies) from [Stackage](https://www.stackage.org) and/or [Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org).
You can save some time by omitting hledger-* packages you don't want.\
- **`stack install --resolver=lts-12 cassava-megaparsec-1.0.0 hledger-lib-1.11 hledger-1.11 hledger-ui-1.11 hledger-web-1.11 hledger-api-1.11`**\
This installs the main hledger packages from [Stackage](https://www.stackage.org) and/or [Hackage](http://hackage.haskell.org).
To estimate the build time, add `--dry-run`.
You can save some time by omitting hledger-ui, hledger-web and/or hledger-api.
You can kill and restart this without losing progress.
<span class=warnings>([windows: hledger-ui is not available](https://github.com/jtdaugherty/vty/pull/1#issuecomment-297143444))</span>
You can kill and restart this without losing progress.
To estimate the build time, add `--dry-run`.
If you see "was generated with a newer version of hpack, please upgrade and try again" errors, you can ignore them.
(Upgrade to the latest stack release to stop them.)
<!--
If you need to build with an older GHC version for some reason, these commands should work
(except on Mac Sierra which [requires at least GHC 8.0.2/lts-8](https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12479)):\
`stack install --resolver=lts-7 hledger-lib-1.3 hledger-1.3 hledger-ui-1.3 hledger-web-1.3 hledger-api-1.3 brick-0.19 vty-5.15.1 data-clist-0.1.2.0` *# (GHC 8.0.1)* \
`stack install --resolver=lts-6 hledger-lib-1.3 hledger-1.3 hledger-ui-1.3 hledger-web-1.3 hledger-api-1.3 megaparsec-5.3.1 brick-0.19 vty-5.15.1 data-clist-0.1.2.0 text-zipper-0.10` *# (GHC 7.10.3)* \
--> <!-- keep synced with stack.yaml files -->
3. **[If you see link errors..](#link-errors)**
4. **[Set up \$PATH](#set-up-path)**
5. **Install addons ?**\
Additional [add-on commands](/hledger.html#third-party-add-ons),
such as
[hledger-diff](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger-diff),
[hledger-iadd](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger-iadd),
[hledger-interest](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger-interest),
and [hledger-irr](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hledger-irr)
can be installed similarly to the above.

### b3. with cabal
[cabal](https://www.haskell.org/cabal/) is the other Haskell build tool. If you're a cabal expert, feel free to use this in the usual way.
[cabal](https://www.haskell.org/cabal/) is the other Haskell build tool. If you're a cabal expert, feel free to use it in the usual way, eg:

- **[If you see link errors..](#link-errors)**, **[Set up \$PATH](#set-up-path)**, and **[Test](#test)**, as above.
