Getting a Binary Release
You can either build a release from sources or download a pre-built release. If you don't plan on developing Kubernetes itself, we suggest a pre-built release.
Prebuilt Binary Release
Soon, we will have a list of numbered and nightly releases. Until then, you can download a development release/snapshot from here.
Unpack this tar file on Linux or OS X. Unpack this tar file on Linux or OS X, cd to the created kubernetes/ directory, and then follow the getting started guide for your cloud.
Building from source
Get the Kubernetes source. If you are simply building a release from source there is no need to set up a full golang environment as all building happens in a Docker container.
TODO: Change this to suggest using a numbered release once we have one with the new build scripts.
Building a release is simple.
git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes.git
cd kubernetes
build/release.sh
For more details on the release process see the build/ directory
