# Installing gh on Linux
|
|
|
|
Packages downloaded from https://cli.github.com or from https://github.com/cli/cli/releases
|
|
are considered official binaries. We focus on a couple of popular Linux distros and
|
|
the following CPU architectures: `386`, `amd64`, `arm64`.
|
|
|
|
Other sources for installation are community-maintained and thus might lag behind
|
|
our release schedule.
|
|
|
|
