```bash
# ~/code directory has to be used (it's a temporary limitation)
git clone https://github.com/vlang/v ~/code/v
cd ~/code/v/compiler
# You can clone V anywhere
git clone https://github.com/vlang/v
cd v/compiler
make
# Or build without make:
wget https://vlang.io/v.c # Download the V compiler's source translated to C
cc -std=gnu11 -w -o vc v.c # Build it with Clang or GCC
./vc -o v . && rm vc # Use the resulting V binary to build V from V source, delete the old compiler
./v -o v . # Bootstrap the compiler (this will also do initial setup)
```
That's it! Now you have a V executable at `~/code/v/compiler/v`.
Bootstrap the compiler to make sure it works:
```
./v -o v .
```
That's it! Now you have a V executable at `v/compiler/v`.
You can create a symlink so that it's globally available:
