Binaries

The easiest way to install LFortran is to install the lfortran Conda package from conda-forge.

See the installation instructions in the Documentation.

Source Tarballs

When installing from source, the recommended way is to use the release tarballs.

Git Repository

To develop LFortran, one has to install from the main git repository:

https://github.com/lfortran/lfortran

When installing from git, in addition to the dependencies for the source tarballs, one has to also install Bison, re2c and Python. The souce tarballs do not depend on these extra dependencies, and so they are the recommended way to install LFortran for end users. For more details, see the installation instructions in our Documentation.
