Or follow the [deployment from binary]({{< relref "from-binary.en-us.md" >}}) guide.

macOS

Currently, the only supported method of installation on MacOS is Homebrew. Following the [deployment from binary]({{< relref "from-binary.en-us.md" >}}) guide may work, but is not supported. To install Gitea via brew:

brew tap gitea/tap https://gitea.com/gitea/homebrew-gitea
brew install gitea

FreeBSD

A FreeBSD port www/gitea is available. To install the pre-built binary package:

pkg install gitea

For the most up to date version, or to build the port with custom options, install it from the port:

su -
cd /usr/ports/www/gitea
make install clean

The port uses the standard FreeBSD file system layout: config files are in /usr/local/etc/gitea, bundled templates, options, plugins and themes are in /usr/local/share/gitea, and a start script is in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/gitea.

To enable Gitea to run as a service, run sysrc gitea_enable=YES and start it with service gitea start.

Cloudron

Gitea is available as a 1-click install on Cloudron. Cloudron makes it easy to run apps like Gitea on your server and keep them up-to-date and secure.

There is a demo instance (username: cloudron password: cloudron) where you can experiment with running Gitea.
