+# How To Install
+Updated: Oct 10, 2024
+
+> [!important]
+> I tested it only on macOS. Windows commands is what I remember of how it should work.
+> If you have suggestions feel free to tell me on Discord or create a PR.
+
+## CLI
+First you need CLI to orchestrate the compiler.
+
+For Unix:
+```sh
+curl -fsSL sh.thelang.io | bash
+```
+
+In case you are curious what it does,
+you can check here: https://github.com/thelang-io/cli/blob/main/install.sh
+
+For Windows:
+```powershell
+irm ps1.thelang.io | iex
+```
+
+If that doesn't work, try this one:
+```powershell
+(New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadString('https://ps1.thelang.io/') | iex
+```
+
+In case you are curious what it does,
+you can check here: https://github.com/thelang-io/cli/blob/main/install.ps1
+
+## Test CLI Installation
+
+```sh
+the -v
+```
+
+If that doesn't work you probably need to re-login into your terminal.
+
+## Before Downloading Compiler
+Before, everything was compiled on cloud servers.
+After Oct 2024, I disabled cloud servers (I paid $600 for the last year and nobody used it).
+To compile you will need a compiler now :)
+
+Before you will get a compiler you will need to have CMake installed: https://cmake.org/download/
+
+Next thing you need to download prebuilt dev version of OpenSSL
+from: https://cdn.thelang.io/deps.tar.gz and unpack the file.
+It will contain folder "native" with your platform inside of it.
+This is needed by compiler itself when you are compiling programs that require SSL support.
+
+After that you need to create system environment variable or add it to your `~/.profile`:
+```
+DEPS_DIR="path/to/native/$platform"
+```
+
+## Building Compiler
+This is how to build a compiler from source on Unix:
+```sh
+git clone --depth=1 -b feat-new-codegen --single-branch https://github.com/thelang-io/the.git
+cmake the -B the/build -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build the/build
+cp the/build/the ~/.the/bin/thex
+rm -rf the
+```
+
+And this is how to build a compiler from source on Windows:
+```powershell
+git clone --depth=1 -b feat-new-codegen --single-branch https://github.com/thelang-io/the.git
+cmake the -B the/build -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
+cmake --build the/build
+Copy-Item "the/build/Debug/the.exe" -Destination "$env:UserProfile/The/bin/thex.exe"
+Remove-Item -Recurse -Force the
+```
+
+That should be it!
+
+## Test Installation
+Create a file, eg "main.the":
+
+```the
+main {
+  print("Hello, World")
+}
+```
+
+And run it like this:
+
+```sh
+the run main.the --compiler=thex
+```
+
+> [!important]
+> If you don't add `--compiler=thex` it will try to run on cloud server, and you will get an error.
+
+## Further Reading
+Remember, this is old version that is built using C++.
+This version is slow, and I'm aware of that.
+The new version, where it's much faster and self-compiles, is still in development.
+Expected to be released by the end of 2024.
